Manuscript document

Title: Instructions for Major Foot on his Command to and at Gravelly Point.

Instructs Foot to go to Cape Vincent, New York, and take command there. Because the British post there is "considered as a strong Pickett" he is "not permitted to make predatory incursions into the enemy's territory." He can attack if the British are sighted on the eastern shores of Grand Isle. He is to keep a vigilant watch and forward intelligence.
