West Point June 22. 1784 dear Sir — I expected before this, you would have settled my Ac^t and finding in your hands a sufficiency to have balanced it, but I believe you must have forgot it, as I am certain I have received more than my due, provided my Ac^t was settled — Captain Condy going on to Philadelphia to settle the Ac^ts of the Regiment, I have requested him to attend to this business, and settle the Ac^t, I have put a sufficiency into his hands for that purpose — There is a charge in your Books against me for pay rec^d for my Regiment in 1778, when at Providence, which monies I never received, nor did a farthing of it come into my hands except my monthly pay, as you will observe by M^r. [undecipherable] Pay Masters Letter to me on the Subject, which you will find amongst my Vouchers left with you last fall — I flatter myself you will do me Justice in the settlement of my Ac^t & make me every Allowance you can with propriety. I think you can have no doubt in giving me credit, for the Vouchers left with you, for monies paid the balances of the Officers Ac^ts — In May 1779 I began to recruit my Regiment, and paid out immediately to the Officers all the monies I had rec^d for that purpose — in October following, my Regiment was ordered to march & join the Army, some of the Officers returned the balance of their recruiting Ac^ts dollar for dollar, & a number of them gave me their Notes for the balances, several of them are not discharged yet, as you find by the Vouchers, others took up their Notes in 1779 & received money agreeable to the face of them — I was not particular when the Officers paid me their Ac^ts of Notes, as I always supposed, what ever balance was in my hands after I had done recruiting, should be charged with agreeable to the to the department at that time which was in May 1778 — In 1780 I might have settled my Ac^ts as others did & paid in the nominal sum, but I thought it unjust, for at that time I could have purchased fifty dollars for one — If you should want any further information I beg you to write me at Boston by post — I am dear Sir with great Esteem & regard [signature: undecipherable] [9 Priv[undecipherable].
