Dr Sir
You was pleased last year to direct the agent at Albany to refuse payment, upon pension falling due after Sept. to Joseph Moore (N o 3045) in consequence of my representation of the dishonest course he took, & of the improper oath & Certificate of magistrate in the premises. — This has had the effect to make him learn that "honesty is the best policy," & he has now proposed, & has just executed a power of Atty, & taken the oath of identity, with the original certificate in his possession, which was restored to him on his assurance of doing right. — The Justice before whom the power was executed last year, acknowledges that he was to blame in advising Moore that he could take the oath, telling him that "he had the construction of the Certf e . (then an hundred miles off!) as it was in the hand of his friend" — This is all the excuse offered, & all they have. — Will you Sir, please direct the agent to pay on the inclosed power — & remit it for that purpose. —
I am Sir very respectfully your ob t Serv t Jay H. Hathaway P.M.
