To Colonels Polk & Sumner of the North Carolina Troops Petersburg.
Gentlemen
If you should want Provisions or Money Wm. Call in Behalf of the Continental paymaster & Commissary General will furnish you with either, you drawing Bills for that purpose—I know not
what sums you should think necessary otherwise I should have drawn for you; but not more than one month's pay for your men I recommend to you to draw—please to hurry after me with all Expedition. I shall wait for you at Fredericksburg or Dumfries.
