This company was mustered into the SER
vice of the United States by Mai. Rains,
U. S. army, and is stated in the report Of
the commissioners to have received during
its term of service issues of clothing, ra-
tionS, &c, the same as in case of the reg
ular troops. On referring to the accounts
Of Lieut. ]. Nugen, U. S. quartermaster at
SteilacoOm, this is found to be the fact.
Why the captain or any one else should
have contracted these accounts for for
age, subsistence, &c, outside of and in ad.
dition to the regular supplies by the United
States officers, is unexplained. The papers
show that they, or some of them at least,
should not be recognized by the quarter
master at Steilacoom, yet they are ap-
proved by the commissioners, and few
paid in whole or in part in public property.
