To Alexander Hamilton from Richard Harison, [9 October 1790]
From Richard Harison1
[New York, October 9, 1790]
The Question proposed to me by the Secretary of the Treasury respecting Loss sustained by Robbery from public Officers during the late War, has been maturely considered, and I am of Opinion that the Officers are not chargeable on that Account unless Negligence can be imputed to them.
