Discusses the preparation for an expedition (possibly the build-up to the Battle of Fallen Timbers that took place on 20 August 1794). Notes there have been volunteers pouring in ever since his arrival. Reports General [Charles] Scott has moved to the head of the line with a small group of men. Mentions Scott describes the men as a bunch of fighting fellows and the best party that ever came out of Kentuckey [sic]. Appears to express his doubts regarding Scott's men. Also notes some of General Scott's horses are unable to handle the expedition and that Scott plans on persuading the men to allow the regular troops at Greenville, Ohio to use the pack horses. Discusses how unhappy he was to learn that it is commonly known throughout the country that General [Anthony] Wayne and General [James] Wilkinson have a strained relationship between each other. Also mentions a conversation he had with Wilkinson where Wilkinson expressed his disgust with the service. Notes Wilkinson inquired about the question of his conduct, which Winthrop says he waived the subject away for obvious reasons. Says Wilkinson spoke of Scott as being dishonorable and a drunk. Expresses his displeasure with Cincinnati, Ohio and writes he has now been here long enough to be heartily sick of it and requests to pass the winter in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Recommends his brother for an appointment. Sends his best wishes to Mrs. Lucy Knox and the rest of the family.
