[R. Smith to Council.]

George Town October 15^th 1776.
May it please your Honours. Enclosed you have a list of
the men now enrolled under my command, and I apprehend
that my Lieutenants and Ensign may have a few more, but this
I am uncertain of.
There are only a very few guns and blanketts yet belonging
to the company and I am fearful that not many more can be
procured in this county so as to be ready for this company in
any reasonable time. But if it is your opinion that I should
march with those already enrolled, in our present condition,
you will be pleased to transmit! me your orders and they shall
be obeyed. In the mean time with the assistance of Col
Magruder, I shall try to purchase all the arms and other neces-
saries I can hear of, and also to enlist more men.
I am, may it please your Honours,
Your most obed^t Serv^t
Rich^d Smith.
