Content Description | Knox certifies that $982 were paid to Captain Steven's and Bedlam's companies in the artillery regiment, before their march from Cambridge to Canada. Charles Knowles, Pay Master to the Massachusetts artillery, certifies that General Knox has accounted for $1,500 payment due to the regiment of artillery.
