Agreeably to your request of the 13 Instant, I have Inclosed you a return of Moneys charged Colt Joseph Wood, the Charge of £3093.15/ is taken from a return made by me which does not Specify the purpose it was drawn for but I have reason to Suppose it was on the recruiting Service. The Officers of Colt Woods Regiment are a ver that they made a Settlement with him and Considered themselves exonerated from the [undecipherable] received for the recruiting Service and do I not find any one of them to have Acknowledged any monies received from Colt Wood in their Settlements made with me —
I am. [GP]
