Accounting Concerns

Description

Howell discusses a number of accounting concerns, including the rounding up of sums of two thirds of a cent and above, the pay of the troops for February, arrears of subsistence due officers for 1791 and 1792, and the absence of a need to include subordinate payrolls when the general payrolls have already been sent.
