abstract
{"value"=>"In answer to his letter of the 8th inst.; maintaining that he has been misinformed when he says the sequestered estates have \"had the greatest attention paid to them -- been preserved in a connected state -- and greatly thriven\"; that \"liberal allowances\" have not been made to the families whose estates were sequestered; that his officers have stripped the estates of all kinds of property; that although the State legislature has confiscated the property of loyalists it has left untouched debts due them; that his proposition for suspending the Confiscation act without offering an equivalent is inadmissible."}
