Albany March 16th 1778 -


Sir - I have just wrote an answer to General Bayley letting him know that altho' our Expedition cannot be carried into Execution at this present moment yet he is to keep the Thousand Men he men- tioned in his Letter to me in the utmost readiness as they may be very serviceable to the United States as Scouting Parties, in Build- ing the Fort and Garrisoning of it when finished and in Defending the Frontiers of that Quarter - I think Sir you would do well to en- gage those Men for the Campaign - you will take Care to inform the Committees of the Measures we are taking for the Security of the Inhabitants in those parts, and jointly with them you will make every necessary Preparation for the Fort they have desired of me, and you will send to me as soon as possible the answer of the Engineer to whom I have wrote by you, in all Sir I expect you will be very par- ticular in your Accounts to me respecting the matter and let me know the Sentiments of the People also about it - you may assure them that Congress means to use every step in their power for their security, and expects in return that they themselves will exert every Nerve in favour of our common cause -


You will also assure those of the Militia and the Citizens in Gen -. eral who have been Employed in the Service of the United States and not received their pay that we retain the highest sense of their Services, and that those Debts will be soon Discharged - I have sent down repeated Expresses on the Subject, and they have given me the pleasure to know that there will be a sufficiency of Money here shortly to satisfy the whole - You will constantly keep out Scouting Parties in order to prevent as much as possible any Spies or Parties of the Enemy from coming among us and returning again, as I understand there are British officers (or at least Tories) Recruiting in the Country you will take particular Care to Discover and Appre- hend them, you will keep Spies with the Enemy to watch their Mo- tions and learn their Intentions, and give particular Accounts of any Intelligence you may receive to the officer Commanding at Albany -

You will receive advices from me respecting the Settlement pro- posed in favour of the Indians - I expect you will send me a most exact Return of the Militia now raised and under your command. I wish it to be signed by the Committee in order that I may be able to send down a true state of the Militia in that Quarter - I believe a General officer will go to Review them in that Quarter -

Gentlemen - We have your favor of the 27th ultº with Colonel Dearborn's order in your favor for the payment of the charge that may attend the making up the 200 suits of Cloathes for his regiment - We delivered him the materials for these Cloathes, that he might be the more conveniently accommodated in having them made under his direction, & for dispatch - but are sorry to find that the price is to be 24/ # suit, as we have never paid more than 18/ and a loss of 200 dollars falls on our department - We are liable to censure in this matter, on that account, especially as the doing it was rather stepping out of our line -

This moment is arrived here a family who lives on part of the front on account of discoveries being made of small Parties of the Enemy and the remainder are following, and for 60 miles they are upon a doubt whether to remove or not, which they must do unless they can be Protected - I am ready to March at any time when need calls cod I only get the necessary supplies -
