| Abstract | Letter from Robert Lettis Hooper to Nathanael Greene. Easton - Enclosing extracts of several letters, to show the orders he has received and the measures he has pursued. Has raised 48 teams on a contract for three months to carry on the flour mentioned in these letters. Acknowledging his letters of 23rd and 28th ult., glad General Greene approves of his candid reports. Will have his accounts to January 1 completed before the end of the month. Must ask for money, however, to complete his present contracts, so begs him to send 0,000 by the bearer, Mr. Strouse. Can procure pack-saddles. "Has grown monstrous fat by Mrs. Greene eating and drinking his health." | ||
