{"value"=>"Because of his friend's presence, is happy in spite of the wind storm which has just passed; remarks that esteem, friendship, and confidence are sure presages of success, and unless the elements are in accord with the enemy he hopes to embrace his friend on the battle field, after the foe has been defeated; will act at once on the plans agreed upon, and knows Col. Laurens will do the same; needs some one to recommend him to the generals, and is sure he cannot have a better advocate than Col. Laurens."}
