Accounts Received

Description

Accounts for the expenditures for the fortifications at Baltimore received. Accounts do not contain record of payments made by George Sears to individual laborers as recorded on Sears accounts. Simmons assumed the accounts were in Gilmor's possession and requested them to be forwarded to the Office. Simmons recommended a weekly payroll signed by the laborers and engineer to simplify payment process.
