{"value"=>"Acknowledges letter received about the time they adjourned from Princeton; since then there have not been nine states represented, so that Pierce's concerns and all others have been delayed; on application of some foreign officers for some immediate pay, a committee was appointed, of which he is chairman; there are different opinions in construing what the Journals say concerning promises or payments to foreign officers; he wishes to know whether such officers have been allowed half pay, and if so whether it was allowed indiscriminately to those who had or had not taken the oath of allegiance."}
