Title
Payments of Rations Retained Under the Contract of William Duer
Description
Howell inquires as to whether the payment of rations, provided under the contract of William Duer and claimed by officers of the Army, should be made. Howell wants to know whether these claims should be discharged given the fact that Duer's contract was settled for a specific period with only one ration allowed for each officer during that period.
