Sir,
I have forwarded by Capt Chisholm my abstracts and accounts stated of the payments to the troops of this Territory - both the Regulars and Militia, and also for the contingent expences of Government and the Indian Department with the vouchers for the same, which I hope you will find right and agreeable to the form prescribed. The warrants for the payments shall take some other opportunity to forward.
I have in some instances regulated some Errors that was in the Muster Rolls, which makes their amounts more than was at first estimated, in other other instances they have been short of the estimate layed before you. This has been owing to the defect of the Officers and muster master; the reports upon the pay rolls will point them out.

Upon the whole the amount will be about the same intended for to discharge them.
