{"value"=>"Alludes to his letter of Apr. 8th in which he called Leslie's attention to that part of the Act of Confiscation respecting debts due to British subjects; should Leslie carry out the threats held up in a letter of Apr. 4th, it will become his duty to arrest the whole of that property; he is informed that many of the people who mean to leave for St. Augustine with the British army are possessed of negroes and other property belonging to citizens of this state, which they mean to take away with them; if this is done he will seize on the whole of the debts due to British subjects."}
