To George Washington from Jedediah Huntington, 27 June 1782

Dear Sir,

Norwich June 27. 1782

Your Excellencys Favor of the 15th did not reach me until this day—I shall lay it before the Governor & Council of Safety who have the Disposal of the rejected Recruits—& afterwards give the necessary Orders to the Mustering Officers—I see but a small Prospect of geting many more Recruits but as the State have fixed on the 20th of next Month as the ultimatum, I think best to have the mustering Officers stay to that Day.

I will put my Affairs in Order to repair to Camp as soon as possible—in the mean time—am with greatest Esteem & Respect Your Excellencys most obedt Servant

J. Huntington
