Accountant's Office April 22d 1800
Sir
Your letter on the subject of the accounts of Capt Ellery is received, and in reply thereto I have to inform you that some time since, I made application to Mr. Swan the Pay Master General, to whom the accounts were returned, & he informed me that he had delivered them to Major Genl. Hamilton -- to this effect I then wrote to Capt Ellery. On the receipt of your letter I made a second application to Mr. Swan & he gave me the same answer; with the addition, that he had heard nothing of them since he deliered them to Genl Hamilton --

You are therefore requested when convenient to attend to this office for the purpose of giving the proper informa- tion on the subject.
