Title
Reports Activity with Medicine, Powder, and Military Stores
Description
Received boxes of medicine for the engineers and artillerists. Has delivered some to Col. Rochefontaine, and he will probably send orders for the remainder within a few days. Encloses return of round shot. Requests assistance of Captain Williams to ascertain military store. Has removed the good powder from Fort Putnam to Fort Clinton, because the new magazine in Fort Putnam is not sufficient for the powder. Will send more military store returns.
