In Council Annapolis 16^th April 1779
Sir.
In Answer to yours of the 15^th Ins^t we think it will be much
the best for you to continue drawing the Money as you used
to do. What of the Wheat may be collected in Montgomery,
by Maj^r Brooke we wish also to be delivered to you and that
the whole may be manufactured and sent forward as soon
as possible; what can be sent to your Mills conveniently,
we would chuse to have ground up there. By a Letter
from M^r Gov^r Morris, they want from this State 2000
B^lls of Flour by the first of May, 3000 more by the first of June
& 5000 in that Month. By a Letter from Col^o Hollingsworth
of the 10^th Ins^t he then had about 15000 Bushels of Forage
stored at the Head of Elk; he seems to be under strong
Expectations that his Difficulties are over about Forage.
We are &^ca
Cap^t Thomas Richardson
