General Orders, Head-quarters, Boston, Dec. 12. 1792.

The Commander in Chief is sorry to find that no annual Return for the present year, has been received at the Adjutant General's office, of several Divisions of the Militia of this Commonwealth, and that in several of those which have been received, entire Corps are omitted, although in a state of organization capable of being returned according to law. The Commander in Chief being desirous of having the general Abstract complete, requires that those Major Generals who have not made returns of their Divisions this season, make them without delay; and that those Major-Generals, in whose Returns entire Corps are omitted, take immediate measures to obtain a Return of them, and send the same to the Adjutant General, as soon as possible, that he may be enabled to make up the general Abstract for the present year complete, with all Corps which are not in a state of total disorganization.

By order of the Commander in Chief, Wm. Donnison, Adjutant General

Att. H. Sewall D. A. Gen.
