{"value"=>"Fears the Commissary of prisoners has not explained the circumstances of his leaving Virginia; Governor Nelson has promised Dr. Griffen to grant him leave to go to Philadelphia, but being ill had failed to send the explanatory letters; Connolly therefore set out expecting the papers to follow; hopes his requisition submitted to the Executive may be complied with; at any rate is glad to be so far on his way to England, determined as he is to leave a country that has long been repugnant to his feelings; asks for such indulgence as may procure for him air and exercise."}
