New York 26 Jany. 1790
Sir
By directions of the Sec'y at War I have by this Post transmitted to Captain Savage the sum of four hundred and Thirty dollars —
for the purpose of advancing one months pay to each Officer & to compleating one months pay to the Non Commiss'd & Matropes of your their Companies previous to their [undecipherable] leaving Springfield — you will apply to Captain Savage for your pay as I conceive unnecessary to get a
in Boston
Bill for so small a sum. The Monies advanced by me, added to Lieut. Pierce, added to your advances will more than [undecipherable]
pay for himself & the Men with him. I have therefore deducted his pay from the Abstract, a copy of which I is sent [undecipherable].
I am Sir
Your Obed Serv.
Jos. Howell L
Capt. Henry Burbeck
Boston.
