About . the last of July, or the fore part of August, I was requested to go down from my work on the Custom-house to the ofiiee of Hiagins to sign a voucher, so, as it was said that said Milwain could draw hi money. When I got into said Hig gins office, a voucher, or receipt, was handed me to sign, for 114. I was told to sign it; it would be all right. I signed the receipt, or voucher, but got no money. A draft for that amount (8114) was then handed nie, which T gave to said Milwain. About the 23d of September last, another receipt was presented to me to sign, for the sum of 153 and some cents, for work in August on the. dome of said Custom-house. I signed said receipt, or voucher, for said amount, but got no draft" at that time. After that I had a settle ment with said Milwain for said sev enteen days' work on sail Custom house, and was only allowed S3 50 for each day of ten hours, and get ting in all only 850 50, though some of that amo int was paid before all the work was done.
