Albermarle 12th December 1791 Sir, Having reliably experienced favors of this kind from you emboldens me still to intrude farther on your goodness. David Owings & David Wood, have got some military claims sent on by the Assembly to Congress to have them settled - and they have wrote to Mr. Madison to lay them separately before Congress. And as I was in some measure the litigation of their not having paid as you will see by the papers. Therefore beg you to be so good as to try to get them settled when they come to hand and write me word their fate. I am Sir your most Obedient Servant Richard Bruce Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
