Writes, "I arrived at this place on my way to West Point but the ice has prevented me from proceeding any further and I am obligated to return to Carolina immediately which makes it necessary for me to go to Newark immediately. The brave I have entrusted with a letter to my Father and take the liberty of requesting your aid to assist him in passing the river, which request your goodness will pardon me for."
