Sir,

when I Inclosed you Returns of the Cloathing Arms &c. that had been Received for my Regiment I omited to mention to you that the Knapsacks had no division in them

whether It woud be adveisable to have the Soldiers Cloathing so nearly Connected With their Provisions I will leave you to determine

If you Shoud think proper to order Divisions to be made Be pleased to empower me to have it done

with the highest Respect I have the honor to be Sir Your Obdt Servant

Thomas Parker
