Title

Impossible to Make Satisfactory Returns, Etc.

Description

Anderson explains why he has not forwarded a return of business and expenditures for the year 1798. There are so many small parties sent in separate directions that he scarcely has an hour's leisure so it has been impossible to make satisfactory returns.
