The papers were never deposited with me.
Description
"It surely must have escaped General Hamilton's recollection that that the papers he alludes to were never deposited with me. After reading the publication in which he mentioned this deposit being thus made, I was surprised at the omission of which, in case I had been applied to for a view of them. I should certainly have reminded him--under any other circumstances it would not have been delicate to have addressed him on the subject."
