{"value"=>"Tench Tilghman, Headquarters Northern Army. Could not write sooner because of the uncertainty of his movements; they are all in suspense; the tories say there will not be peace with France and Spain, but that Great Britain will offer independence if the United States will treat separately; otherwise she will attack the West Indies; fears the losses Holland has sustained may retard peace; Great Britain will be loath to give up Ceylon; wishes the Marquis de Vaudreuil might have received notice of the destination of the British fleet with the force from Georgia."}
