No rolls having been transmitted for the detachment at the post at Wheeling, wish to be informed if they are paid, & if so please to forward the papers.
I enclose a list of errors in the pay rolls transmitted to which I request your attention. I also inclose a State of Doct. Thomas Vandykes accounts, the balance you will discharge & transmit his rec't on the acct as your voucher, hereafter he may paid by you.
I am with respect Sir Your obdt Servt.
