Sir,

The Bearer Justus Cadwell the soldier of the 13th. whose place was proposed to be supplied Abner Chapel, having rejoined his regiment upon the expiration of his furlough, I have concluded it would furnish you with an opportunity of carrying your intentions promptly into effect by giving him a pass-port to Head Quarters—

He will of course deliver this Letter, & not doubting but you have received my last, covering the deffinitive inspection and approbation of Chapel, you will have it, in your power to give him the discharge contemplated

I have the Honor to be, with great Respect—Sir—Your most Obedt. Humble Servt.

W. S. Smith Lt. Colo. of ye. 12th.
