Hamilton,” and stamped “Free” in the upper right. Conjoined leaf bears an ALS signed “Wm Simmons” as principal Clerk in the office of the Auditor of the Treasury, one page, August 8th 1790. To Henry Glen Esq. In part, “The resolution of Congress limiting the time for bringing in claims directs that a particular abstract thereof be filed within as certain time or will be precluded from allowance, – the account against the Indian Department which you lately delivered to me is considered by this act as excluded from settlement, no satisfactory proof having been produced to shew that an abstract was filed as prescribed by the said act.” In very good condition, with a central vertical fold to panel, intersecting folds to letter, small stamp affecting tops of a couple letters of franking signature, slight paper loss from wax seal, and scattered toning to letter.
Glen entered political life in 1775 as a representative of Schenectady on the Albany County Committee of Correspondence. A deputy Quartermaster General during the Revolutionary War, he later served as a commissioner of Indian Affairs, where he accompanied George Washington on his tour of the Mohawk Valley in 1783, and served in the US House of Representatives from 1793 to 1801.
