You will be pleased to observe it accordingly in making these payments.
I observe by the Muster Rolls of Capt Fords Co as well as that of Capt Hinnys that a name has been added to each, apparently after the [undecipherable] that has been certified the same in the first is "Elias Harriss" and in the latter "Erasmus Griffith". I wish you particularly to investigate the cause and ascertain with certainty that these persons performed the service. I need not detail to you the rules to be observed in making these payments but only request that you will present as far as practicable all Gratuidades on the Delaware pay, & require proof of the persons having served who apply either in person or by power of Attorney.
For the aforesaid amount you will be authorized to draw Bills on this Secretary of War of which he has no doubt informs you. I advance the Pay Bills enclosed to guide you in your payments.
