17 January 1804, Department of State. “Your letter of the 5th. Novr. with the documents enclosed containing the result of your investigations respecting the charges made by George Brening [Breining] against Henry Voight, the Chief Coiner of the Mint, were duly laid before the President of the U. States, by whose direction I have the honor to acquaint you that the exculpatory evidence adduced on this occasion has satisfied him that the charges against Mr. Voight are without foundation.”
