1. Neither the enclosed proceedings nor the petition for William Aylett Lee’s restoration has been identified, but a report of Lee’s court-martial appears in Anthony Wayne’s general orders for 20 February. At the trial, Lee was found not guilty of embezzling soldiers’ pay, but guilty of charges that included keeping a man on guard for forty-eight hours, "repeated drunkeness," the "misapplication of Public property" in "disposing of Public ammunition and provision on the Ohio" in November 1792, "neglect of duty in not keeping a company book," and "leaving . . . arrest and going into the state of Kentucky" when ordered to stand trial. He was sentenced to dismissal from the service, and Wayne, though declaring his belief that Lee "erred more from the want of attention to the military discipline . . . than from any defect of the heart," confirmed the sentence (PHi: Wayne Papers).
