Full Description:
Clinton to McLean. New York. The account received from Goreham for 300 suits of clothing differs from the original invoice in prices of shoes, shirts and stockings. Requests him to direct Goreham to transmit an account of expendiure thereof and the number of suits remaining in his possession before payment can be ordered for any part, as by the pay list it appears the regiment never amounted to 200 men. Buckles, velvet stocks and cockades cannot be allowed by the Government. To direct Goreham and the officer commanding not to order any more clothing from England as the Provincial regiments will be furnished from here.
