TRYON COUNTY COMMITTEE TO MESSRS˙ PARRIS, MOORE, ETC.

In Committee of the County of Try on, October 5, 1776.

GENTLEMEN: In the other letter of this day' s date we forgot to mention to you the absolute necessity we are under for money. The people to whom money is due are daily calling on us. You will therefore, if possible, obtain four hundred pounds New-York currency for us, and if one of you do not come up soon send it by the bearer, Lieutenant Simmonds, of the Rangers.

We shall have the accounts ready to be sent down to Congress soon.

We again recommend it earnestly to you to obtain an answer to the letters to Congress, so that we have them by the bearer. We are, gentlemen, your humble servants.

By order: JOHN FREY, Chairman.

To Messrs˙ Parris, Moore, Harper, and Newkirk, in Provincial Congress, Fishkill.
