It was thought proper by a party, to levell some shafts at me....Parties will arise in free governments - and party prejudice is proverbally blind. Asks about the general Machine in Virginia and comments on prosperity in Pennsylvania. Discusses the New York governor's election, [John] Jay it would seem had a majority of votes - but [George] Clinton is the governor ...the essence of republicanism is done away and if a man can perpetuate himself to office by a minority.

This book was released on 1782 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discusses problems related to the transportation of military stores from Yorktown to Westham or Richmond, Virginia. Comments that he and his associates are bound in their ability to carry out orders because the state government of Virginia refuses to help. Mentions the resignation of Thomas Nelson as governor and the election of Benjamin Harrison. Has managed to set up the stores near Westham, close to the river so as to be able to ship them by boat in case of danger, but fears that in an invasion or attack they still may not be able to protect them. Mentions the arrival of an independent Commissary of Military Stores, Captain [Nathaniel] Irish, instructed to report only to General Nathanael Greene. Refers to a letter he enclosed from Davis (Colonel William Davies, Commissioner of War in Virginia; see GLC02437.01324 and GLC02437.01325) about the impossibility of moving the stores by vessel. Makes a case for New London as a final destination for the stores, arguing that it is geographically well-situated and there are many artificers there who are sympathetic to their cause. Mentions Benedict Arnold, Thomas Jones, as well as Mr. Morris (likely Robert Morris, financier) who he will visit in Philadelphia to discuss procuring supplies.

Has sent personnel to supervise the collection of the stores. They will be furnished with fatigue men from the Continental troops, and once those troops have left, he has arranged for local militia men to be posted there. He has situated Capt. Singleton at Richmond to receive the stores there and arrange for houses to store them. However, they cannot clean and repair the stores properly and make arrangements for them until Mr. Jones arrives, because he has the money and the authority to make the arrangements. Capt. Singleton needs men to help him debark the stores and bring them in, and Mr. Jones will likely need men to help manage the task, when he arrives. Mr. Jones is late to arrive, and Carrington needs to leave to join General St. Clair, so asks Col. Harrison to come to Richmond and help. Has appealed to the Government for help, as he was instructed to do, but has little hope of obtaining any help. Has enclosed instructions for Mr. Jones and Capt. Singleton.
