Two horseman's tents, twelve common tents, and ten axes should be forwarded to Captain Alexander Gibson in Staunton. Gibson believes that these articles can be found at Shepherds Town in Virginia. If that is the case, they should be forwarded from there. If they are not there or at any other place nearer than Philadelphia, arrangements should be made to have them purchased.
