ment, in order that the same may be again employed for His
Majesty's Service.
I am further to inform you that similar Orders are sent, by
this Conveyance to Pensylvania, Virginia, North Carolina and

juncture which is finally to fix the future Safety, and Welfare
of America, and of your own Province in particular; And the
King doubts not, from your known Fidelity & Attachment,
that you will employ yourself, with the utmost Application and
Dispatch in this promising and decisive Crisis.
I am, with great Truth and Regard,
Sir
Your most obedient
humble Servant
