GENERAL SULLIVAN TO NEW-HAMPSHIRE COMMITTEE OF SAFETY.

Winter-Hill, October 18, 1775.

GENTLEMEN: Agreeable to your request, I enclose you a list of vacancies in the New-Hampshire Regiments, with the names of the persons recommended to fill them; beg you to fill up the commissions and forward them, as soon as possible, to, Gentlemen, your very humble servant,

JOHN SULLIVAN.

Honourable Committee of Safety, New-Hampshire.

P˙ S. As Colonel Stark and Colonel Reed have not mentioned when the vacancies happened, beg you to leave me to put in the dates, which I think you may venture to do, though I am fully convinced of the justice of your observation, viz: that you have no authority to delegate the power of making out commissions.

Your humble servant, JOHN SULLIVAN.
