[Council to Colo. Henry Hollingsworth]
Sir Yours of the 3Cth Ulto p Giles, we have received and are glad
you have been relieved from the Major Part of the Horses delivered
to you; those that are judged to be unfit for public Use, we wish
you to have pastured on the best Terms you can. As the Assembly
will meet next week we must wait their Determination to know what
will be done with them, in the mean Time, we think, as little Expence
ought to be incurred as possible, without injuring the Horses, and,
if it was in our Power, would most readily relieve you from the
Expense and Trouble of them, but cannot, now, order them to be
sold in the manner you point out. Mr Lee & Mr Gilpin inform us they
have Horses and Waggons which were procured for the Public, if
they are such as are fit for Service, you will receive and have them
delivered to the Continental Quartermaster in this State
