Title
Finding a Paymaster, Etc.
Description
Capt. Bruff declines having anything more to do with paying the troops unless he receives the compensation allowed to paymasters. This causes some uneasiness since there is no other officer at Niagara who would undertake a task that Rivardi himself would also decline unless it was an absolute necessity.
