Sir
I have added the remainder of the Stores to the return of what was recd from the Jersey Militia, and have found them to be in their possession Sundries as p incolosed return the most of the Tents Muskets Bayonets Cartouch boxes Belts are delivered up to the publick Store Keeper on the rout to Fort Pitt, the remainder [strikethrough: thereof] are in the country, and I am informed mostly with the officers waiting for orders for a Dilivy & from what I can hear think it would be of advantage to call them in without loss of time as many of the articles will receive considerable injury [strikethrough: from] want of attention — I am with respt. Your Most Hum Sert
