[Council to Colo. Moses Rawlings]

Sir We received yours of the 7^th Ins^t As we have nothing but
Money of the new Emission in the Treasury, which you write, will
not answer your Purpose, it is not in our Power to Supply by this
Opportunity. The Wheat of this year being of an extraordinary good
Quality, we believe, if all the Produce, when ground, excepting the
Bran & Shorts, is mixed, it will be fit for the Use of the Army. The
Flour from your County is to be sent to the Southward, it will there-
fore be proper to forward it to George Town, to be delivered to
Thomas Beall Jun^r

[Council to Henry Schenebely Esq^r]

Sir We have received a Letter from the Quartermaster General,
informing us that the Army have no Occasion for a further Supply
of Horses & Waggons, it will therefore be proper to cease purchas-
ing any more. M^r Calhoun has not any Linen on public Account as
we know of, but should Col^o Shyrock have any that he is satisfied
belongs to the State, which is fit for the Purpose you mention, we
hereby request him to deliver it to you. All the Provisions you have
obtained excepting the Bran & Shorts and other Forage necessary for
the Horses you employ, must be forwarded to George Town, as speed-
ily as possible and delivered to M^r Tho^s Beall Jun^r at that Place.
The Waggons & Teams you have purchased, may be employed in
that Service, until you receive further Directions. We would send
you a Sum of the new Money by this Opportunity, but are informed,
it will not answer at present in your County, and do not think it
proper to draw on the Clerk for the Ordinary License Money. In a
short Time we hope to be able to send you a Sum of Money
