Arrearages for Men Discharged in 1796, Etc.
Description
Among other pay matters, Swan notes that money has been put in the hands of the paymasters for the purpose of discharging the arrears due to all discharged men in 1796. He believes that the complaints are unfounded so far as they relate to the officers and men in Philadelphia in 1796.
