From George Washington to Edward Antill, 24 January 1783
Head Quarters Janry 24 1783.
Sir
After your having been so long absent (by permission) while the Regt was at a distance, I cannot but express my surprize that you have not joined the Corps since it has arrived so near to you as its present Cantonment; and at the same time I find myself under the necessity of directing that you forthwith repair to, & remain with the Regt to which You belong. I am Sir Your Most Obedt Servt.
