The bulk of the page consists of a table listing the men's names, amounts of supplies, and sums of money. The names begin with Sergeants Francis Nicholson and John Warren and continue with the soldiers Thomas Looland, Timothy Stevens, Syfax Mosley, Prince Simbo, Isaac Tryon, John Holding, Asa Fox, Alexander Macuplin, and Cromwell Price. Written at center of the verso is [Glastonbury / Family Supplies / in 1781] and along the top left edge: [Bill of Supplies for / the Officers & Soldiers family / belong to the Town of / Glastonbury for the year / 1781 / Entered].
