Francis Ware (1779)

[Council to Col. Ware.]

In Council Annapolis 31s‘ May 1779 Sir.

It is very difficult to get you any Thing from hence for Want of Carriage. We inclose you an Order on Col° Barnes for 100″” of Powder which you’ll make use of, if you should want, he has more than he’ll have Occasion for. If the Enemy should come up the Bay, we imagine Baltimore 8: this Place will most likely be visited by them; we have applied what Arms we had, by much too few, with that View, but we hope to be able to strenghen you a little soon in Musquets.

Col° Francis Ware We are &.

P. S. We send you 500 Gun Flints.
