CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractLetter from Sir James Jay to Nathanael Greene. Fishkill - Concerning a horse which he bought from Colonel Hay, who sometime after, told him that he never rode him thirty miles without his falling lame. Considered it a joke, having several times ridden him more than that without the least injury. Has kept the horse so far in reserve for General Greene, but he is perfectly free to take or leave him after consulting with Colonel Hay.
