War department, Nov. 16^th 1792 9 Sir I have received your letter of the 2 instant. I am surprized to hear that a single pair of the woolen overalls, for the troops, should have been rejected. Every article of clothing was reported to me, as having passed a critical examination, by the inspectors who were specially appointed for that purpose. I am Sir, with esteem, Your humble Serv^t [signature] [Major Craig]
