Dear Sir
This day Lieut Andrew Lee late of General Flazens Regiment has paid with the Treasury of this state the sum o £497.53 being for principal and interest received by him for depreciation. The Treasurer has given duplicate receipts for the same one of which I have retaind and fled in this office. Mr Le will now be considered of the quota of Pennsylvania and the monies paid him by that state for his depreciation will be a proper charge to the United States.
I am Sir Yo
