Appealing to the Committee of Finances, he asks for justice on behalf of Jacques Le Ray. He relates what Le Ray's son, James, has told him about his father. The letter praises both father and son for their staunch defense of "the cause of liberty" and for aid to America in obtaining arms, and requests that Jacques' financial troubles be dealt with promptly.
