COLONEL WEBB TO GENERAL WASHINGTON.

Camp on Winter-Hill, October 23, 1775.

SIR: According to your Excellency' s desire, I have made inquiry among my officers, and find them in general willing to comply with your Excellency' s request. The officers of the several Companies have not had time, as yet, to find out the disposition of their soldiers. I shall use my utmost influence to have your Excellency' s request complied with, and as soon as I can possibly ascertain the precise number, will give your Excellency information.

I am your Excellency' s most humble servant,

CHARLES WEBB.

To George Washington, Esq˙, Generalissimo of the Continental Army, Cambridge.
