Elias Boudinot to Samuel Hodgdon, 8/10/1796 |
| Description |
Request from U.S. Mint Director Elias Boudinot to Major Samuel Hodgdon for block of timber. From the National Archives and Records Administration, record group 94, courtesy of Roger W. Burdette. Transcription: The Director of the Mint respectfully informs Major [Samuel] Hodgdon, that the Mint is in absolute need of a block of timber of such dimensions, as cannot easily be had, by which means the pubic business is delayed. The bearer informs the Director that there is one, that appears to be usable, belonging to the War Department that would suit the Mint precisely. If it could be had, it would save much trouble, and the value of it would be immediately paid. The Director would be obliged to Major Hodgdon to examine into this matter, and if possible let the bearer have it, for the use of the Mint. Wednesday 10 Aug. Subjects: Numismatics; U.S. Mint |
