Summary
Marked private. Writes that Congress has recently repeated its solution respecting the additional allowance to the commanding officer at west point. Does not think there is any chance Congress will help them. Suggests Knox talk to his good friend General [Ezekiel] Cornell and either apply to Congress directly or through Lincoln. Promises he will speak to your friends on the subject - though I am convinced that this is not the proper moment to make the application.
