Title

Delivery to New York or Staten Island Sound

Description

Ford announces that he will gladly deliver the shot inspected at Mount Hope according to the terms of the contract. He charges that Hodgdon must not have taken notice of the contract in which Ford agreed to deliver the stores to New York or to some place on Staten Island Sound. He will deliver to Elizabeth Town and from there to Fort Jay on Governors Island but the United States must pay the freight. He will need to engage wagoners for that purpose.
