October 28, 1775
General orders, Headquarters at Cambridge

It is recommended to the Non- commissioned Officers and Soldiers, whose pay will be drawn in consequence of last Thursdays orders ( especially to those whose attachments to the glorious Cause in which they are engaged, and which will induce them to continue in the service another year) to lay out their money in shirts, shoes, stocking and a good pair of leather breaches; and not in coats and waistcoats, as it is intended that the new Army be clothed in uniform.... and number of tailors will be immediately set to work to make regimentals for those brave men, who are willing at all hazards to defend their invaluable rights and privileges.
