In agreeing to redeem in an amount no-t to exceed in the eggTegate $20,000 incomplete Federal Reserve notes and Federal Reserve Bank notes wn~ch find their way into the _Treasurer's cash, the Federal Reser11e Banks do so with the understanding that they admit of no liability in connection with the circulation of incomplete notes and that they expect to be reimbursed ultimately by the Government ..
