| CONTENT DESCRIPTION | |||
| Abstract | Letter acknowledging his favor of the 6th inst., but unable to concur with the other gentlemen, his assistants. Honored by his approbation, and has given his arguments the strictest attention, but does not think it right to make a complete sacrifice of his interest. Unfair treatment they have received. Gratitude and friendship for Colonel Hay, and should he be embarrassed by his resignation on November 10, he promises "to continue some little time after, but his services shall be rendered gratis, on the score of friendship, not as a public office. | ||
