{"value"=>"Has received all his favors by the ten transports sent by Hancock and Apthorp by Governor Laurence's orders; has drawn on them for $2,200; hopes to send the transports with about half a battalion of the sickly; has persuaded about 100 men to stay under some of the best of their own officers; it is possible they might keep the wolf from the door and probably might play the D–vil with some of the black toads tormenting them at Bay Verte; troops have been extremely sickly and anxious to get home, discipline lax, officers too familiar with the men."}
