PROCLAMATI O N.
WHEREAS there are several Deserters from the
British and Foreign Troops under my Command,
who are serving with the Enemy, or are concealed in the
Rebel Country: I have thought fie to issue this my Pro
clamation, offering a free and unlimited I ardon to all
such Deserters, who shall surrender themselves to any of
bis Majesty's Troops before the fift Day cf June next.
And whereas there^re many of bis Majesty's European
Sublets at this Time serving in the Rebel Army against
their King and Country, who, ftuog with Remorse, and
sensible of the Heinoufoefe of such an unnatural Pro
ceeding, would be anxious to return to fheir Allegiance,
did not their Demerits, before their Arrival in America,
make them doubtful of meeting with Prote&ren and
Support within these Lines. Ido therefore hereby pro
mise to al! such who shall come in before the above men
.tinned firft Day of June 1781, in addition totbe Benefits,
Protection and Support, to which they would beentituled
under any other Proclamations, to procure for them his
Majesty's m?ft gracious Pardon, for all Felonies and Trta
fons (Murder excepted) Which the, have hereto ore been
,guilty of, provided they will take up Arms in his Service,
land give their Afliflance to the quelling this unnatural
(Rebellion against hie Government.
Given under my Hand at Head Quarters, in New-York,
the tenth Day of April, 1781.
