{"value"=>"Thanks Neilson for his letter of the 11th and therein-enclosed newspapers; is sorry he has not been able to make any diversion in that quarter to alarm the enemy; suggests that the boats from Philadelphia may serve so to do; the boats would be useful also should the situation permit of any thing serious on [Staten] Island. A postscript requests Neilson to forward a letter from Mrs. Delancy and to take charge of an expected trunk."}
