the Substitutes, or altogether. I shall give you a List, first of the Militia
and the Substitutes following. [Here follows the lists.] I am very much
Surprised that these men that you was to send is not come yet, according to yr.
Promise und perhaps you may be Inosend, that they may have been onluckey in
Croosing the River.
Sr & Friend:
I have Received Arms yesterday but not Compleat, and the Town Mayor is
very Much Surprized that York County Could not afford a Waggon for my Company
and I fear I will not get one, but that the Compy is obliged to carry their
Baggage on their Backs to the Discredit of the County, and also some of the freeman,
and spoke to us why York County Did not turn out better, but I could not make
an answer in the County's Defense, but was to answer with Silence.
Sr, I am with Respect &c Whitest George Long, Capt.
