Letters [stricken]

Portland, October 7, 1823

Rev. Elijah Kellogg, Perry,

Sir:

A reply would have been made to yours of the 30th July last immediately on its receipt: but, as the Council were not in Session no money could be drawn from the Treasury in pursuance of the resolve of the last Legislature, in "favor of the Passamaquoddy Indians," The Council having this day advised to the expenditure of fifty dollars for the relief of the sick and indigent of that tribe, a warrant has been drawn on the Treasury for this sum; and you are requested, in pursuance of the advise of the Council, to cause it to be distributed in such a manner as will best comport with the views of the Legislature: You will keep a particular account of the expenditure of this sum, and have each charge supported by proper vouchers. The Executive, having full confidence in your disposition to further the object for which this small appropriation was made, deem it unnecessary to give any additional instructions.

with respect, I am Sir, Your obedient servant, Albion K. Parris
