In Council Annapolis 2^d June 1778.
Sir.
We have inclosed you an Order on your Sheriff for £1000
Your Accounts very intelligible and formal enough. We
think it will be best to send off the Bacon immediately, as it
may be used before it spoils; probably it may be wanted at
York; you would do well to give the Waggoners Orders to
call on the Commissary there and, if he wants it, to deliver it
