| Abstract | Letter from Nathanael Greene to Morgan Lewis. West Point - Desiring him not to engage in building his store until the garrison at West Point is finished with a sufficient quantity of boards to barrack the troops, which must be sent on with all speed. Just received an order from His Excellency, General Washington, to order down all the flatboats from Albany; not a moment's time is to be lost, as the General is in hourly expectation of Count d'Estaing's arrival, when the boats will be wanted immediately. | ||
