Title

Cleaning French Arms with Sand, Etc.

Description

Enclosed is an account of the repairs of arms duly certified by Captain Fleming, the amount of which should be transmitted to the Supervisor of New York since Cranch needs money,. The 31 cents for cleaning French arms with sand was the cost several years ago so Hodgdon has augmented Cranch's charges due to the high price of labor. By mistake, cleaning arms with sand was left off the list.
