I transmit herewith my roster of officers, agents &c, and report of rations for August.  No rations were Sent to the Counties of Blount  Cherokee in this month for the following reason: I shipped them on the estimate for June, the rations for July before the estimate for the latter month reached me, consequently the excess just [[?coverd]] their allowance for August.

The estimate for those Counties are as follows:
Blount for June 700 Cherokee for June 800
Blount for July 420 Cherokee for July 480
Blount for August 280 700  Cherokee for Aug. 320 800

I have the honor to be 
Your Obdt Servant
