Document written by General Hand to Lieutenant Colonel Walker as an aide-de-camp to General von Steuben. Says the bearer of this letter, a Mr. Victor, late an ensign in General Hazen's regiment waits on Walker to draw provisions as a Canadian refugee in distress. Claims Victor has not drawn provisions since February. Walker has written and signed a note on page 2 which commands the contractors to issue provisions to Victor as a refugee and to include them on the abstract for 9 March. A note written and signed by Doughty as Fort Major of West Point and dated 13 April says that General Knox approved giving 122 rations to Victor.
