I have never found any absence from [Lucy] so truly insupportable as the present. I am alone amidst a croud [sic], and unhappy without my companion. Bemoans the War: ...vile I call it because it is a War upon the affections of humanity. It has deprived us of the right enjoyment of six years, long years of our Life-- a period infinitely too long to be engrossed by other objects than the business of Love. Discusses a recent reconnaissance mission to assess the British force in New York City with optimism, stating that many of the British troops in the vicinity will soon depart for Virginia. Reports that some of the Marquis de Lafayette's troops, led by General Anthony Wayne, had a recent encounter with the British under Lord Cornwallis (Knox is possibly referring to the engagement at Green Spring plantation 6 July 1781). Refers to General Nathanael Greene's May-June 1781 Siege of Ninety-Six, and praises Greene's actions in the south: His conduct has exhibited him a great man, and established his reputation beyond the powers of malice to injure it lastingly. Mentions arranging a place for Lucy to stay at a Dr. [Darbys] house. Possibly discussing slaves or servants, asks, whether you are pleas'd with your [Servant]. I want to know whether I can get Cato, you will exchange him for William... Lacks closing and possibly the address leaf.
