SIR,
I Have this Inflant received the Honor of ycur
Letter, which Gratitude as well as Refpe& binds
me to t?ke the earlielt Moment to acknowledge, but
I vart Wo d^ to express how sensibly I feel the
Obligation. The very fav t urable Sentiments which
yourfafand the Hessian Officers have the Goodness
to entertain of ne, cannot but be highly acceptable,
and I fluid ever consider it as an Honor to refle&
upon, with real Satisfaction.
Any Attentions, Sir, which the Command of this
Garrison gave me the Fewer of Shewing to the
Hessian Officers and Cor; s, were no more than what
were jurtly due to their own Merit, and which are
valtl) overpaid by the flattering Reception they have
met with.
To hear the honorable Testimony of Approbation
and Esteem, which you are pleated to confer upon
me, is what I shall ever be proud of, as well as of
your obliging Intentions of making it public.
Wid you be pleased, Sir, to permit my Comple
ments of Thanks to be p-efented to the Hessian
