To MAJOR GENERAL ROBERT HOWE
Head Quarters, New Windsor, June II, 1781.
Dear Sir: I am this moment favored with yours of the same date, together with the Report of the Board of Officers, appointed to inspect Provisions.
If there are any Blunderbusses and Swivels, I have no objection that Captain Pray should be furnished with them, 'tho I think, that vigilance and attention will be his surest protection against the Enemy.
I have to request that you will be pleased to attend at Head Quarters tomorrow Morning at ten OClock, and that you will forward the inclosed Notes to the Genl Officers to whom they are severally addressed. With great regard etc.
