Cooke informs Hand that Thomas Neill, a sergeant of an independent company in Wyoming, Pennsylvania, has acted as clerk to the Quartermaster's Department under Cooke's assistant Lord Butler from 1778 to 1780. Requests that he retain Neill's services for another two months so he may finish settling his books. Note on near bottom states his request was granted until May 20. Hand was a brigadier general in the American Revolution. Cooke signed as late Deputy Quarter Master General.
