Dear H.–
An interview with Major Jack
satisfies us that we have nothing to
fear from him. – We are to see
Beverly Robinson
his own house, touching the exchange
– having seen him in regard to the
Powers of Atty – and it seems dif-
ficult to make him understand
our object. He is a timid man.
Tomorrow at 12 we meet “The
Committee of Finance.”
Wall street is consulting what
can be done with County Bank
Notes.
Yours as ever
B. J. Seward
