West Point Feby 15 1784
I receiv'd this day yr two favors of the 1[undecipherable] [undecipherable]
[undecipherable]
and never heard that the resolve you quote, was
proposed, I have taken no method, to place in
my hands any monies for discharging the
subsistence [undecipherable], for which reason it will be
necessary that I have a return of all the
Officers of the regiment who fall under the
description of this resolve, and of the subsistce
that is due to them, that I may make an
application for the money.
If Congress have made a subsequent order
on the subject I am ignorant of it —
Being soon to close the accounts of your
regiment, I wish you to furnish me, with
an account of all the monies you have
advanc'd to [undecipherable] the Officers for subsisting — It appears
necessary that I have this account soon as it
will be disagreeable if the settlement should
be delayed for that reason.
