Answer
In 1823, Tompkins received partial reimbursement from the federal government for his expenses incurred during the War of 1812. As Governor of New York, Tompkins had authorized the state to raise and equip troops and provide supplies for the war effort. The federal government initially refused to reimburse New York for these expenses, but Tompkins' persistent efforts eventually led to a partial reimbursement in 1823.
