[Council to The Honble Intendant]

We request you will have procured, two Barrels of Brandy or
common Rum for the Use of the Troops about to march. The
Season of the Year requires that they should have some Liquor, and
we imagine this Supply will make them go off chearfully. If common
Rum is purchased, we wish you to have 10 Gallons of good, for the
Officers, but the Brandy will answer both Purposes, if it can be
procured.
