Knox, Secretary of War, replies to a 10 April letter from Biddle. Discusses furnishing the Pennsylvania quota of troops with rations, noting that he wrote a public letter to Biddle on the same topic (this letter is marked private on the docket). Writes, I wish the business would be worthy of your attention- The treasury are so poor that they cannot make other payments than by warrants. Regrets that he can not assist Biddle more in the matter. Noted as a copy on the docket.
