No 25.
D[ea]r Sir
Your Letter N 36 is before me - numbers 34 and 35 are not arrived - the difficulty of conveyance in this severe winter, as the posts do not ride, is very great - it is owing to this I suppose that you had not received [undecipherable] our noti[fications?] -
[undecipherable] Hagan having levied all his [undecipherable] now, it will be necessary that very cautious [undecipherable] be used concerning him - and that the further investigation of his conduct [undecipherable] be made.
I observe you have given the [undecipherable] to the Surgeon's Mate of the [undecipherable: Armands], as late I think is a mistake - there being no resolution [undecipherable]
[undecipherable: Mounier?] says he has furnished me a [undecipherable] Armands settlement - which I have not received -
I am sorry you were not able to forward the remainder of the [undecipherable] Beg [undecipherable] you [undecipherable] me are [undecipherable] & waiting for the remainder
