Title

Requirements for Bells

Description

Hodgdon has been informed that bells may be had in the numbers required and at a rate not exceeding forty shillings a dozen. Those that Knox has described are too large for Hodgdon's purpose. He wants them loud but not too loud and already has enough small ones. The belts that go through them must go around the horses' necks and must have a buckle and be made of leather about as stout as those used for bayonet belts.
