N. 1. Accountants Office February 7^th 1794 Sir, I have considered the claim of Lt Col. [undecipherable] for services rendered by him as Lieutenant of the County of Washington Territory of States North West of the Ohio for services rendered in examining mustering and training the Militia and Scouts called out for the protection of the frontiers of that County &c between the 30^th July 1791 and the 1^st [undecipherable] 1794 his Colonel has qualified to an account 1538 days service in which is included 3 Months and 6 days in coming for money and returning, deducting this time from the total amount charged will leave [undecipherable] days in which he appears to have been in actual Service. In September 1792 you allowed him for services rendered on part of the Years 1790 and 91 the pay and forage of a Major, having considered this the most proper method of settling the present account.

Dollars [undecipherable] This mode of settlement will allow him two hundred and thirty two dollars and 50 Cents, which is less by ninety five dollars and 50 [undecipherable] than the allowance of one dollar & day for the number of days charged and is two dollars and 50 Cents more than would be allowed after deducting the 3 Months 6 days as before mentioned — The State of Pennsylvania allows her County Lieutenants twelve and sixpence & day for two thirds of the Year and the expenses attending
