CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractLetter from William Patterson to John Cox. Estherton - Acknowledging favor of the 11th inst. Vehemently defends himself against certain attacks upon his character, which accuse him of treasonable designs and also of intoxication; thanks Colonel Cox most sincerely for his defense of his character; willing to submit to martial law for inquiry and trial; will be in town the next week, when he expects to produce such proofs of his conduct as will be approved by the gentlemen in Council. Glad His Excellency was not willing to believe the report. Fears from a hint received that the force opposed to them in the "Six Nation" country is greater than is expected.
