Summary
A report that a letter written by Secretary of War General Henry Knox in 1791 to Lancaster's General Edward Hand had been obtained by the Lancaster County Historical Society. The letter was about some buildings owned by Franklin College that had been used to store government supplies. Knox was telling Hand that there was not yet a federal facility to move the supplies to, so he asked Hand to make other arrangements if the College needed the buildings or to rent the buildings if required. The text of the letter is included in the article.

Summary
This article addresses the practice, during the Amercan Revolution, of Britain contracting with several German principalities to use their troops in America. These troops were the "Hessians." Britain used 30,000 Hessian troops, and about 17,000 of them came from Hesse-Cassel .The author quotes a letter from the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel to one of his ministers in which he is concerned about the payments he should receive from the British for his wounded or killed soldiers. He believes there was a miscalculation.
