Col. Otho Holland Williams’s orderly book entry for this date includes an additional general order: “A Field Officer from each Brigade to attend at the orderly Marque at 9 O’Clk tom[orro]w morning to attend the burial of Coll Readnier [La Radière] N. Windsor” (orderly book, 12 Oct.–24 Dec. 1779, DLC: Peter Force Collection).

GW’s aide-de-camp Richard Kidder Meade wrote Brig. Gen. Mordecai Gist from headquarters on this date: “Agreeable to your request I have communicated to his Excy the naked situation of the recruits in your Brigade. Baron De Kalb was here yesterday on the same business and was informed that all cloathing hereafter was to be drawn by the State Clothr from the Clothr Genls Store, who would Issue to the regimental Clothiers, & that shd no such Officer be yet appointed by your State one from the division might do the duty for the present, & draw on acco[un]t—This method may now be adopted—but I have to add, that the Genl wishes if possible that the matter could be deferred, until the general Issue of Cloathing takes place. It however rests with you to do so or not” (DLC:GW).
