New York 21st Septr. 1779

Sir

I beg leave to enclose to you a State of the Vols. of Ireland taken from the Muster Rolls by which you will see that this Regiment is more than compleat to the Establishment. I have only to observe that it appears to me to be compleat in every respect, and that the good appearance of the men is by no means inferior to it's strength.

I have the honor to be
with great respect
your most Obedt. Servt.
