{"value"=>"Congratulates him on the success at Monmouth; had matters been conducted according to the plan of attack, the enemy would have been routed; Gen. Lee is under arrest; mentions the gallant conduct of \"your friend Hammy\" [Alexander Hamilton], and of [John] Laurens; both had their horses shot under them; Cols. [John] Fitzgerald and [Richard K.] Meade deserve great praise; even the secretaries caught the contagion and shared some of the honors of the day; he cannot do justice to his Excellency [Washington] and the singular talents that he unfolded."}
