Popkin defends himself against complaints waged against him by men from Colonel Crane's regiment. Knox had ordered Popkin to go to camp to address the complaints. Popkin writes, The substance of the complaint is not true: Notes for Pay I never receiv'd for any of them, but for depreciation of pay I did, but that they were appropriated by me in a way utterly unauthorized by them is untrue. Expresses his regret that he cannot follow orders, complaining that due to lack of money, he cannot afford to travel to camp. Same as GLC02437.10082.

Marked as a duplicate. Colonel Popkin defends himself against charges of fraud posed by men in Colonel Crane's regiment. Their accusations pertain to repayment of the soldiers and depreciation of currency. Popkin regrets that he cannot follow Knox's orders to go to camp, because he cannot afford traveling expenses. In closing, writes ...the Idea of being called to Camp at any time, but especially at this period, to answer to charges of fraud when, I believe, it will appear to every dispassionate person there is now existing, is exceedingly disagreeable.

Also writes that he has been unable to come down yet because his child has been so unwell. He will try to get passage from Head Quarters that afternoon, but if he is unable, he would like to borrow a boat the next morning.
