Pittsburg 24^th April 1795. Sir I have received your Letter of the 18^th Instant and shall communicate its Contents to Colo Butler on his return from Gen^l Morgans Cantonment where he now is assisting in the Recruiting business in which he has been tolerably successfull. Cloathing for those Recruits is much wanted there is not one piece of linen Recruits in the Store & a number of Young men that have Inlisted as Dragoons are almost altogether without Cloathing or Equipments. Major DeButts is arrived & will Embark on the 27^th. I am Sir with great Respect y^rs Ob^e Hble Servant Honble Timothy Pickering Isaac Craig Sec^y of War Philadelphia
