Title

Rice Instead of Coffee, Etc.

Description

In addition to mentioning his travels to Fort Franklin, Le Boeuf, and Presq'isle, Craig acknowledges receipt of a number of sums from Hodgdon. Several wagons of hospital goods have arrived but there are some discrepancies in that one barrel labeled "coffee" contained rice while the weights of several casks of spirits are mistaken. He wants to know whether appropriations have been made to furnish medicine and hostpital strores to the upper posts of the Ohio.
