Title

Clothing Should Not be Sent to Any One Captain, Etc.

Description

Amidst a discussion of supply matters, Jackson recommends that clothing not be sent on the return of any one captain in his battalion until the return of the whole is sent together. If any single captain procures his clothing before the others it causes murmering and dissension from his companions.
