CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractLetter from Nathanael Greene to William Patterson. Smith's Tavern - Acknowledging favor of 7th inst. from Cumberland. Did not propose an inferior commission out of respect for Colonel Patterson's feelings. Sorry to hear that any of his deputies refused good advice; shows bad disposition and want of principle. British emissaries very troublesome, especially so in Pennsylvania. In hopes that General Sullivan will give the savage tribes a severe drubbing and ruin all the Tory interest.
