Specie to be sent
Description
The Commissary of Military Stores has applied for the $15,000 as instructed, but Secretary Hamilton has declined to give him more than one third in specie. The specie is on its way to Pittsburgh via John Dunwoody, and should arrive in twenty days. It is in a tight cask to your address marked "Speller Solder." He is sending post notes for the remaining 10,000 with this letter. He has also received a number of bills from John Belli, which he has honored.
