Please to send me the contract price of the several Articles of Soldiers cloathing by next post if possible, it is immediately wanted, several Articles of cloathing having been delivered by order of Col: Butler to the Militia now in service the value of which the Secretary of War has ordered to be deducted from their pay — Erecting the new Works at Presqu'isle has produced such a very great consumption of nails, that all the nail rods that I retained at this post are nearly expended, an additional quantity of nail Rods is therefore immediately wanted I am Dear Sir Your obedient Humble Servant Isaac Craig Samuel Hodgdon esq Philadelphia,
