Title

Large Wood Screws for Heel Plates of Muskets, Etc.

Description

$1600 in post notes on account of the Armory have been received. Williams is disappointed that he has not been able to procure large wood screws suitable for heel plates for muskets in either Boston or New York. If they are available in Philadelphia, he asks that 20 - 40 gross be forwarded by stage to New York and from there by water to New Haven
