In an Estimate rendered for Forage on the 9th March 1784, Captain De Brat is included for the Sum of £Ws 9. 6 equal to 54 90 Dollars — I now inclose an estimate for 104 90 Dollars, due Lieut Colo De Brahm — as they are both going to leave the Country shortly; Agreeable to your direction in such cases, I have to request you would be pleased to issue a Warrant for the amount of their dues, that I may settle with them previous to their Departure. —
