Title

Hogsheads Forwarded to Designated Posts

Description

Hogsheads have been forwarded for the posts at Detroit, Mackinac, Niagara, and others. Blankets have been received but no watchcoats which probably indicates an error in the mark. At Mackinac and Detroit there may be an excess of articles other garrisons may be in want of.
