Writes, "This day I ordered off three hundred and fifty oxen for to move the Park, I expect they will be this night thirty miles on their way. Col. Pickering Quarter Master General has also assured me that he will furnish eighty seven horses, that number with the oxen I think will move it; I also sent on three hundred and fifty canteens for the troops - considering the state of our affairs, I hope they will arrive agreeable to your expectations."
