Dec. 15. 05
Th:J. to mr Gallatin
I return you the papers respecting the Sandy hook business which I am content should be closed on the terms already proposed by you. it is well that a government should feel no temper towards a rascally individual, or the present case would justify a high degree of indignation against mr Hartshorne.
NHi: Papers of Albert Gallatin.
