Pittsburgh 8 November 1793— Sir, Your favor of the 24^th Ultimo is just come to hand, Inclosing five thousand Dollars, a very seasonable supply, as it supersedes a Necessity of drawing on You as I had proposed. Yesterday a Boat arrived from Fort Washington, which Brought Letters as late as the 5^th Ultimo, by which it appears, the Army moved forward on the 7^th in Excellent Orders, and high Spirits, and that a large Body of the Militia of Kentucky, was to follow in a few days, a copy of the Quarter Master General's letter of the 6^th is Inclosed — by this Boat I have Received several Packets for the Secretary of War, which are sent by this Post, some other Packs, [strikethrough: for the [undecipherable] of [undecipherable] are] addressed to Oliver Wolcott Esq^r. together with my Returns & Acct. I shall be sent by next Post, the whole being too Bulky for one Mail — I have Inclosed a copy of a Report of a Board of Officers, appointed by the Commander in Chief, to Inspect a Part of the Cavalry Cloathing that appeared damaged. It is the Opinion of the Quarter Master General, that the Waggoners be made accountable for the damages, these Packages appeared outwardly in Good Order when Received here, but might have been Injured by Rain Notwithstanding. It appears that Jacob Haisteman, who was sent Express with Money for the Army, died at Fort Washington, a few days after his Arrival at Head Quarters. He has left a Horse and Saddle which he told me was his own property, what is to be done with them.
