Abstract

Thanks him for his letter enclosing his message to the Assembly; thinks there is little hope that the issue of Assembly's meeting is what it should be, though it is reported the governor has obtained a large sum for the defense of the frontiers; General Shirley is at Albany; Sharpe hopes to meet him there and to see Morris in Philadelphia.
