Expresses his regret that his order of overalls for the Light Infantry cannot be fulfilled, but insists on breeches for those who "joined from the 5th Regt. [as they] did not draw Breeches when they received their other cloathing [sic], and now being entirely destitute, they may be furnished with Breeches to place them on a level with the other part of the company, and the other companies in the corps."
