Description
They hasten to assure him that they believed always that he would exert himself to the utmost for the colonies; they would not desire to know anything that would be inconsistent with his honor to communicate to them; they apprehend that his request relative to Messrs. Bryan and Toyner must have risen from wrong intimation; they know of no counter orders; before receipt of his letter they had issued orders to Captain Thomas Morris; they will be obliged if Captain Toyner will assist him.
