Clothing, Horseman's Tents, Subsistence Money, Etc.
Description
"I have received your letter of the 12th instant. Since the date of my last letter, the residue of clothing mentioned in yours have come to hand. We are much in want of the horseman's tents for the officers and I will thank you to request of the Secretary of War to order a marque for my use as the one sent from Shepherd's Town is not fit for service...Major Campbell writes me that his officers are greatly in want of money and hopes that at all events their subsistence money may be sent to them. Be pleased to answer my [query] with respect to officers' servants [who are] not soldiers..."
