Sir,
Will you have the goodness to instruct the Agent at the Merc s Bank N. York on the subject of my letter of the 12 th inst. i.e. Solomon Hasbrouck's case.
The time expires in a few days. The amt. claimed is very small. $10.89. and the claimants live at such a distance from each other, that the proceeding could not be begun anew.
In haste Most Resp y Yr. Obedt. Servt J. C. Summers

Sir,
I have written twice, Dec. 18 th & 21 st for your instructions in regard to the claim of Solomon Hasbrouck dec d and neither Mr. Fleming nor myself has rec d any answer. I now enclose the paper & as you will perceive by the date, that 90 days have almost elapsed, I must ask you also to waive that objection if the paper should not be returned in time to the Agent.
In this case where it is obvious there can be no fraud, I confidently believe that the Dept. will readily waive a slight technical objection particularly as the amt. due, altho' so small is an object to the claimant and as more than that amt. would be expended in procuring a new power.

Sir
I enclose for your examination the papers in the case of Solomon Hasbrouck deceased.
Your Letter of the 20 th Ultimo authorises me in this case to dispense with the rule requiring the power of Attorney to be presented within Ninety days from its date, and pay the amounts on the production of the Usual Vouchers.
It appears that the power of Attorney is dated on the 5 th of October 1835, but the date of the acknowledgement of two of the heirs is of 21 st October, and as it has been observed as a rule to require all the Vouchers in each particular case, to bear the same date, and as this was an objection stated in my Letter to you of 5 th Ult o : in the case of John Cowdry dec d : I do not feel authorised to make payment, unless you waive the objection with regard to the discrepancy of dates.
I shall feel obliged if you will favour me with some general instructions in regard to this point.
I am very Respectfully
