instructed to persevere in their undertaking, the regiment will be filled up immediately. If it is delayed, and new regiments are to be attended to before the old, I fear it never will be filled.

Yours Very Truly

When Charles last wrote to me he appeared in fine spirits and said the regiment had much improved in health, that he had about 600 good fighting men, that would make their march when called upon.
