Title
Necessary Supplies Should be Forwarded
Description
"...we have neither tents nor the necessary camp utensils. I will however endeavor to help them over these inconveniences until, by your communications to the War Office, the necessary supplies may be forwarded--each Company will at present require 4 good axes and 4 spades and the earliest attention should be paid to the forwarding [of] the pelluses allowed--a further supply of clothing is necessary and more money for the recruiting service..."
