No. 12. [In the traitor's own hand.]

[Endorsed,]

Remarks on works at Wt. Point, a copy to be transmitted to His Excell'y General Washington. Sepr. 1780.

Fort Putnam, stone, wanting great repairs, the wall on the East side broke down, and rebuilding From the Foundation at the West and South side have been a C'hevaux de Frise on the Wst side broke in many places. The East side open, two Boom Proof and Provision Magazine in the Fort, and slight Wooden Barrack. -- A commanding piece of ground 500 yards West between the Fort and No. 4-- or Rocky Hill. --
