Title
Simmons Requesting Boss Remit the Returns of Three Officers
Description
Simmons received Boss' letter of September 30th which contained the returns of Major Darling, Lieutenant Whipple, and Lieutenant Danforth for quarters and fuel during 1799. The whole amount is being returned as Boss made a claim for money paid in lieu of these quarters and fuel which was rejected previously. The reason for rejection was because the account presented currently does not correspond with the amount previously charged. Simmons charges Boss with remitting these returns to the three officers so that they make make personal applications on their own behalf.
