In Committee of Observation, Calvert County, March 4, 1776.
This Committee, agreeable to, the request of the honourable Council of Safety, inform their Honours, that at DrumPoint, (near the mouth of Patuxent,) there are two dwelling-houses, with fire-places to each, and a store-house, and very near thereto a school-house, on the river side, which the proprietors are ready and willing should be used by Captain Beall' s men; and this Committee offer it as their opinion, that that is the most proper place for the troops to be stationed at in this County.
Signed by order:
E˙ JOHNSON, Clerk pro tem.
To the Honourable Daniel of St˙ Thomas Jenifer, Esq.
