Title from docket. Marked as a copy. Possibly refers to Lieutenant Colonel Edward Antill. Contains two letters discussing whether "Colonel Antils [sic] family were to be included in the allowance of provision to Canadian Refugees." The first letter is written by Gates to an unknown female. In the letter, Gates indicates that the commissary is to obey the orders of Colonel [David] Humphreys. The second letter is from Humphreys to Gates, also written 3 March 1783. Humphreys imparts Washington's orders, that the commissary is to regularly deliver issues until further instructions from Benjamin Lincoln, Secretary at War, are received.
