Pittsburg 13th November 1795
Sir
Herewith you will find enclosed several Receipt Rolls accompanied by a Schedule, by which it appears that the payments made by Ensign John McClary for March April May June & July amount to fourteen hundred thirty one dollars 36 cents and Payments made by Cap Crawford, to several Men of his Detachment omitted formerly, amount to a hundred eighty nine dollars eighty eight⅔ cents — this sum Cap: Crawford requests may be placed to his credit and says that he will shortly be able to account for the balance that yet stands against him
a Major Haskell on the third instant put into my hands two thousand five hundred and seventy dollars for pay and forage of the troops at the upper posts of the ohio for August September 1795 and for which sum I have signed duplicate Receipts
It is probable that the Pay & Muster Rolls of the several Detachments for these months may be transmitted by next post — Please to send toward a supply of blank Muster & Pay Rolls — those formerly received being expended
