Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writes that since his last letter, has had an idea that he thought best directed to Knox privately. Suggests that Congress, in all their Corps, to promote by Brevet the Lt Colonels Commandant to be Brigadiers, and the first Majors to be Lieutenant Colonels. Can see no negatives to this plan, as it would not cost them anything, and allow them all to retain command of their regiments. It would, perhaps, grant these officers recognition and therefore motivate them. Also, if they were called on to enter the militia, their rank would give them command over the militia colonels and it might also strike some terror on their foes, & give a certain weight to the federal affairs which they stand much in need of. Respectfully submits the idea to Knox and defers to his better judgment.
