| Abstract | Cites an extract of a letter Auchmuty received from London, 4 March 1775, that expressed approval of the proceedings of the [New York) Assembly and the [Anglican] clergy and that also pointed out that Lord [Frederick] North's resolution regarding taxation "proposes to the Colonies all They can Reasonably ask"; mentions troop transports that sailed from England and comments: "Where are Your Congresses Now? What say Hancock, Adams and all their Rebellious followers? Are they Still Bold. I Trow not"; informs him that "a Rascally Whig Mob" in New York rescued "Sears the King" [Isaac Sears] at the jail door and complains that "Our Magistrates have not the Spirit of a Louse." | ||
