Sir:

I have sent under the Command of Cap'n Walker Seventy of the Militia who were of Gen'l Stephens' Brigade. I have furnished the Guard with Eight Muskets from the Magazine at this station. There are now remaining about thirty of the Militia, apprehended by my order, who are on Furloe, being sick. I shall continue to take up, and send on, any of this flying Corps who may fall into my hands, untill you will be pleased to communicate to me upon this Subject.
