Sir.
In June last, M^r Thomas Seon was sent from this State to
Philadelphia; he had been an Officer in the British Service
and came out of Philadelphia; he said that he had resigned
his Commission and referred to several Gentlemen, who had
been Prisoners in Philadelphia, to clear up the Suspicions which
were entertained of him here. He was, undoubtedly, discharged
by you, either generally or on Terms, and has a pass dated 1
July from Lewis Nichoba Town Major. M^r Bradford Com-
missary of Prisoners told Cap^t Campbell that M^r Seon was set at
Liberty on Paroll to appear when called on. M^r Seon hav-
ing returned hither and shewing a Desire to go to the West
Indies, the Council and I have enquired of him whether he is
not on Paroll, but he says that his Discharge was absolute
and that you were fully satisfied by Major Giles and others,
that the Suspicions here entertained of him, were groundless,
I shall be obliged to you to inform me whether M^r Seon's
Discharge was absolute, or, if on Terms what those Terms are.
I am &^ca T. J.
