Assembly concerning setting the pay for those who allow soldiers to use their homes & businesses: "...the sum of sixpense for each meal with one pint of cyder or small beer that shall be by them so furnished to any soldier of the United Colonies..." with more. Also included are the: "...rules & regulations proposed by the Committee for the better Government of the Military Association in Pennsylvania" which carries over to take all of pg. 2 & most of pg. 3 with 39 points (see photos for portions). Pg. 3 contains a letter which begins: "The movement of the troops from Boston to Canada is the only measure which assures success in the reduction of America to due obedience...from the frontiers of that province the troops can with great facility possess the interior fertile country which forms the great object of the rebels resources..." with more.
