a "fly" for each of the officers tents.(fifteen)
for it is almost impossible to live in one
of these tents when the sun shines - with a
double covering they are very comfortable.

     They can be made in Bangor as they
know the size of the officers tents. You can
have no idea how much the above addition
to our tents will add to our comfort, and
probably health. It is of utmost impor-
tance that good teamsters should be procured in
Maine, & come on with the horses. - there are 
plenty of good ones to be had there, ^ it will
be difficult selecting them here after the horses
arrive.
