New York March 18th 1800—
Sir,
I have just received a copy of a letter from Colonel Hamtramck to General Wilkinson, containing the enclosed paragraph.
Col: Stevens is, at present, absent from this City; but, I presume, he has communicated this matter to you.— I would thank you to inform me whether this has been done, and what measures have been taken in the case.
It is very unpleasant, that execution of requisitions of this kind should be long delayed. With great consideration I am Sir
yr. ob[undecipherable]
