To Thomas Butler, 22 June 1799

New York June 22d. 1799

Sir,

I have your letter of the fifth instant acknowledging the receipt of mine of the 2d. ultimo.

You are right in supposing that it went to you thro’ mistake; my Agency in the southern district being confined to the recruiting service

With great consideration &

Lt. Col: Butler
