FROM JAMES LOVELL TO THE COMMISSIONERS.
Philadelphia, October 12th, 1778.
Gentlemen,
Congress having foreign affairs now under consideration, I shall not write to you on that subject, more especially as it is quite uncertain how the present papers will be conveyed. Nor shall I pretend to unravel to you the designs of the enemy. They are very inscrutable. The printers know as much as I do about them; therefore I send a few of the last prints of Dunlap, which, with the Boston papers, must decide you in opinion.
Your affectionate friend, &c.
JAMES LOVELL.
