{"value"=>"Per Col. [Francis] Barber. The manner in which Capt. [Jonathan] Dayton was captured will not operate against him; being considered as an officer employed in getting intelligence he will follow the usual course of exchanges; asks him to tell the spy that had the letter enclosed in sealing-wax that Lafayette expects him here with the plans he promised to procure; wants the New York calendar for the new year."}
