Orderly book, 1800-1801.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/20030293

Copies of general orders of the Federal artillery company of Charleston kept by A.B. Motte, orderly sergeant. These orders are copies of documents signed by Langdon Cheves and James Duncan, captains. They are generally routine in nature, calling for courts-martial, musters, reviews, parades, and reports, but one order, May 8, 1801, calls for the firing of a salute "as Vice President Burr passes Fort Mechanic."
