48 Mr. Faraday on the 



regard for us is not abated. With the utmost deference we beg leave to say- 

 it was our principle study to promote to the best of our knowledge that order 

 and regularity so necessary to the perfecting our respective Companies, and we 

 are assured you acknowledge the same. We address you on a Subject which we 

 intended to have done whilst under your Command, but owing to that unpleasant 

 Circumstance taking place which was the Cause of the dissolution of our 

 Regiment, & knowing your feelings were severely wounded on the occasion we 

 thought it proper to defer the subject to some future period. 



We beg leave to lay before you a statement of pay received by the Sergeants 

 of Coin's Ackers and Sylvester each serving at the time we did. 



To each permanent Sergeant from the Commencement of his Servitude to 

 the termination thereof, one Shilling and Sixpence pr- day. 



We humbly hope you will use your interest in our favor for past services ; 

 and be assured Sir should the exigencies of the State require our farther 

 assistance we should with alacrity assemble again under your Command. 

 We are with the greatest respect Sir 



Your very humble & obliged Sergeants
