[Council to General Smallwood.]
We are honored with yours of this Day. As the Act for raising
Recruits directs that 2O,000£ be put into your Hands for that Pur-
pose, we think you may, with great Propriety, dispose of Part of
this Money in the Purchase of the necessary Books and Papers, as,
doubtless, all your reasonable Expenditures are to be paid out of it.
There are three thousand Dollars of the Money detained by Mr
Steward, in the Hands of Col. Saml Smith which we will give you
an Order for, if you. think proper.
