EDWARD INGRAHAM TO GOV. CASWELL.
[From Executive Letter Book.]

Wilmington, 1st October, 1777.

Sir:—

By order of Capt. Forster I have for some time past kept a Rendezvous in order to enlist men for the Washington. She is now full manned, and am anxious to know how said Rendezvous is to be paid off. I have applied to the agent, who tells me he is also at a loss. I would therefore intreat your directions, as I am now under sailing orders, & at a loss how to proceed, and should be glad to have a list of the officers pay.

I am Sir with respect
Your Obt Hum Servt.,
EDWD INGRAHAM.
