now told that they will have to serve three years, from date of Enlistment, You wil please do me the Kindnesss, to let me know whether they can be mustered out, with the Regt, or not, and if not, whether they will be entitled to the Bounty allowed three yrs volunteers, or not, by so doing, you will give great satisfaction, to some badly dissatisfied Soldiers, I wil not weary you with more on the subject, please excuse this,

Awaiting your Reply
Sir I have the honor to be
Your Most Obt Servt
