Caleb Swan Esq^r Pay Masters Gen^l Department of War Accountants Office June 11^th 1794 — Sir I received your letter of the 8^th Ult^o — I now inclose to you the Act of Congress passed 1^st Inst^o regulating the military establishments of the United States for your Govern- ment. Very great inconveniences frequently arise from the Sub- legionary Pay Masters not forwarding their Accounts there are now four in the Army of whom I have never seen a Voucher, more frequent Settlement with them & Transmissions of the Vouchers by you to this office would prevent many difficulties which arise on the Settlement of their Accounts here when they are of so long Standing. I have therefore to request that you will call on them for their Accounts and Vouchers & make a Settlement with them as frequent as circumstances of the case will admit and transmit the Accounts and Vouchers to this Office for revision. I am &c W^m Simmons — [left margin note: S^t D'Shott's account forwarded by you & Memorandum of 29 Apr last also been received — — W S]
