We advised our friend TO take two witnesses and to
present to the holder of his note the amount which

announce to him that he would pay the note wards

the war Is over should be jealous advocate for the

Treasury notes are the only which we have of

of purchasing munitions of var, of procuring transport

all enterprises, you arrest the whole machinery, you
