Pittsburg 21st January 1795.
Dear Sir,
Your favour of the 17th instant, J. this moment come to hand, I have not heard of any Militia Stores, or clothing being deposited at Greensburg, but Shall immediately make the necessary enquiries. It appears however that Several Articles were lost by the Virginia and Mary-land Militia on their rout to this place; Particularly at Fort Cumberland, Fambleton and Union town. — Several Articles of Clothing have lately arrived from Carlisle & Bedford; my receipt for which I presume have reached you by this time.
A Box of Stationary arrived on the 28th instant without Invoice, by the Hands of Wm Smith
I am with great Esteem
Dear Sir; Your most Obedt
Humb: Servant
