Writes that in response to his request, he has not heard that any sick members of the garrison are suffering "for want of a Gentleman of the hospital." Writes that he does not feel it would be proper to grant him permission to travel to New Jersey on family business, perhaps because Dr. McKnight's services are needed at Fishkill: "If it really was with me to grant you the permission and the State of the service would permit it, I certainly should convey it to you without hesitation."
