Sir.
Doctr Lemmon, Mr Richard Lemmon & Mr Mark Alex-
ander represent to us that they obtained Orders from the
Board of War for nine Hessian Prisoners to work at a Salt
Works at Sinnepuxent, in which they are concerned, with
others and that they brought nine of those Prisoners to Balti-
more Town, who, as they suppose, and probably truly, have
been persuaded to refuse going according to their Agreement
and that you in Consequence of Mr Lindenberger's Warrant,
have taken those Prisoners out of their Hands and now keep
them at the Fort. If those Prisoners or any of them are wil-
ling to proceed to the Salt Works, you are to give up such to
go forward, but if any refuse, such must be immediately sent
back to Colo Grub, they are not to be kept in Baltimore at the
Expence of this State, nor shall we consent to their being at
large, to be employed in the Service of any but those who
have been at the Expence of bringing them thither.
Capt Furnival Balto We are &ca
