{"value"=>"Answering his letter of May 21, declines to make separate command of British troops on James Island, as he had notified Col: de Benning that matters should continue as they did under the command of Lt. Col. [John] Thomas, the officer commanding on the island receiving reports from each corps, which will parade for regimental duty independent of each other; ever will avoid conferring distinctions to the prejudice of any officer under his command; Major [William] Dancey's services on the Island had been such that he could not think of depriving him of a command."}
