Request for Account Information or Refund

Description

Money advanced to Brown by James Mott, Treasurer of New Jersey, for pay of 2nd New Jersey regiment called up to suppress an insurrection in the Western counties of Pennsylvania. The money that was issued on the order of Robert J. Johnson, Paymaster to said regiment must be refunded to War Office since no vouchers were transmitted to Treasurer to exonerate Brown. Col. Nevill was furnished with corrections to attend to final settlement of said expedition. Neville will visit Office on the 15th by which time Simmons hoped vouchers will be furnished by Brown.
