The non-commissioned officers and privates acknowledge to have received every thing which is their due in respect to pay and clothing.  One man claims a part of his bounty, which, he says, has been withheld.  A regimental court martial has already decided against him, but the business shall again be investigated by a garrison court martial.

Lieut.-Colonel Murray has reported to me, that there are several men in his regiment who claim bounty, but as only one complained at the inspection, the remainder must be satisfied that he is doing his utmost to recover what is actually their due.

The hospital is in as complete order as the house which has been hired for that purpose can admit.  Indeed, the troops in garrison are much inconvenienced for want of permanent hospitals.  There were three cases of fever; the remainder of the patients were chiefly attacked with a disease too prevalent among young soldiers.  Three men are unfit for service, being frost-bitten.

    The men are supplied with necessaries in conformity to his
    majesty’s regulations.

    Quebec, July 1, 1807.

    I have the honor to transmit herewith the inspection return of
    the 41st regiment for two distinct periods, viz.  September 1,
    1806, and March 1, 1807.

Some inaccuracies being found in the September return previously received, it was sent back to Lieut.-Colonel Proctor, at Fort George, for correction.  This circumstance and the distance of the place, account for the delay which has occurred in complying, in the present instance, with the commands of his royal highness the commander-in-chief.

The very great distance of the quarters the 41st now occupy, has prevented my making personally the periodical inspection of that regiment required by my instructions.  But its dispersed state and the many evils by which it is surrounded will, however great the zeal and intelligence of Lieut.-Colonel Proctor and the other officers, so far affect the discipline and morals of the men, as to justify my saying that both the one and the other must, without the possibility of a remedy, progressively suffer in proportion as the regiment remains stationed in the Upper Province.  The 41st regiment, having a considerable number of old soldiers, is better calculated for that service than either the 49th or 100th regiments, and no change is therefore meditated.

Not being possessed with the means of making a more circumstantial report of the state of the 41st regiment, I have only to add, in justice to the officers commanding posts, that they evince in their communications with head quarters much attention and sound judgment.
