Letter from George Murray Denounces Exchequer Note Rumor
George Murray of Philadelphia rebuts a Baltimore Federal Republican claim that he conspired to engrave and print exchequer bill plates. He states he met with Gallatin last winter with Archibald Banay to discuss a joint plan to stop foreign fabrication of vessel papers, never received a facsimile, and never acted to engrave or copy any government paper. Murray warns he will publish this denial and mail copies to other printers to counter the allegation.
