Description

Cited in Simmons to House, 01/06/1801. Due to illness, General Irvine's son has retreated to a warmer climate in Charleston until Spring. In the meantime, the barracks occupied by his Company has been judged unfit for human habitation and subsequently repaired under the direction of Mr. Wolstencraft. General Irvine wants to be assured that his son's account accurately reflects the fact that he never drew any wood for his own use but only for his Company.
