Dear Sir
I understood from you some time since, that you had directed the suspension of the recruiting service for the [strikethrough: new] 12 Regiments and about [strikethrough: all disbanding] up of the d[ifferent] recruiting [strikethrough: parties] and [strikethrough text] [strikethrough: and seeing to the recruits] mento belonging to [strikethrough: their] respective Regiments. Col. [strikethrough: I find] Moore, has not yet received these orders and it would appear [strikethrough: from] [strikethrough: Collins at that I have received] that some of the Regiments, Southerly are [strikethrough: still] recruiting. I mention [this] to [strikethrough: bring the subject to your recollection in] case [any] circumstances [have] suspended your orders. I [remain?]
Yours Truly
Maj Gen Hamilton
