General noteAn outgrowth of the political bitterness of Jefferson's administration. Two letters were written to the president over the signature of Nicolas Geffroy of Newport, R.I., which turned out to be forgeries. Senator Ellery (Republican, R.I.) accused Congressman Rutledge (Federalist, S.C.) of writing them, and this pamphlet is in support of that accusation.
