West Point Jany 28 1784 D[ea]r Sir I have received yours of the 20^th and the money by M[r] [undecipherable] [undecipherable] — M[r] Morris writes me that he has paid you ten [undecipherable] both in Notes and [undecipherable] — [undecipherable] [undecipherable] to be collected in Specie — as good [undecipherable] [undecipherable] I suppose you have kept the other two thousand to exchange and send on in money — or M[r] Morris is mistaken — Morris's money was [undecipherable: raised/taken] by M[r] [undecipherable] Willis among his Roll of Canadians, where you were certainly paid here — on M[r] Carleton's return I do not doubt you well be able to commence the settlement; I want to close my accounts but cannot do it until the whole was ready. I want to have the accounts passed also for M[r] [undecipherable: Milleguas?] Officers, that on my coming to [undecipherable] with M[r] Wetmore our whole accounts may be closed — The estimate for February will be the same as for Jany as I do not know of any alteration. [undecipherable] had better [undecipherable] the 1386 dols also to M[r] Wetmore[undecipherable] [undecipherable] Ditto accounts be collected, and entered [undecipherable] our statement — you will, if on your own [undecipherable] from M[r] Nourse find the charges [undecipherable] — and I wish you to write him for [undecipherable] — [undecipherable] and for his vouchers honor [undecipherable] — did in obtaining our [undecipherable] as you and M[r] [undecipherable] have nothing material to do but this I [undecipherable] my number well, be [undecipherable] — It is not absolutely necessary to keep open the last months [undecipherable] to show all outstanding [undecipherable] accounts as far as possible, that we in my [undecipherable] in our settlement [undecipherable] and our power — [signature: undecipherable] [M[r] [undecipherable]]
