Title
Charleville Muskets to Serve as Patterns
Description
Harris is directed to forward to John Kilty, Supervisor of Revenue at Baltimore, the best six muskets of the Charleville model in the public stores to serve as patterns for small arms which residents of the State of Maryland have contracted to fabricate for the use of the United States. The muskets must be packed so as to shield them from injury and, if there is no vessel sailing soon from Baltimore, they should be sent by land and water stage.
