Timothy Pickering,
Secretary of War.
Sir, I take the liberty of enclosing to you sundry Observations that occurred to me in looking at the Estimate rendered by Mr. Thos. Held for the Expence of the Armoury at the Post of New London in the State of Virginia. As the Allowances made by him differ from the Acts of Congress, particularly the one of the 2 April 1794 establishing Arsenals, I may be [undecipherable] whether he should receive some instructions for his government.
I am Sir, &c.
