Situation of Capt Gills Accounts, in which several Errors in former Settlements have been rectified and the balanceDuced to about 371 dollars, he yet stands charged with 2 80 Species dollars received from General Green for the balance of the price of New Horses Purchased by him for his Troops and wth 25.63¾ dollars old Emission, which I seek to have Accounted for. Inquire also that the Certificates from Virginia have not yet ascertained whether Capt Gill has rated any Depreciation Account with the State or not, or drew any pay after depreciation had ceased.
