frosts will restore his regiment to perfect Health, and respectable medical men can be procured here if the Regiment should remain with us. Lt. Colonel [James] Miller has been very much indisposed but is better. He will not however I fear be able to march with us a circumstance infinitely to be regretted, for the experience which he has had. I have known no better officer and he is so much beloved by the officers and men of the 4th Regiment that I am persuaded that they would follow him to the Devil. Col. Boyd commands all the infantry as a Brigadier. There is not an officer of the regular troops (Col. Miller excepted) who cannot eat his rations as heartily as he ever could. The two that were left at Vincennes (one with an accidental hurt) are well and are coming up.
I have the Honor to be with the greatest respect. Sir,
Your Humble. Servt.
The Honble. William Eustis, Esqr. Secretary of War
