Title

A Suit Filed by James Caldwell

Description

Amidst a discussion of a number of accounting matters, Edward Day notes that a suit was instituted by James Caldwell in a moment of discontent against the Commissary General. This prevented a consolidation of the claim at the general settlement made in Hodgdon's office but the errors of that transaction have since been corrected.
