Inscribed by Reverend J. Twain with a note, perhaps in his hand: "Contentall mony. How is it is to be called in May 20 1777 & April 11. 1778. 15 000 000 & 6 million for 15 years." Front page publishes a letter to Lord Chatham of which the author is unknown and ends at the top of page two with the words "to be continued." Includes news of British troops in Georgia and Florida, war plans of King George III, Washington's thoughts on prisoner exchange, and a letter signed by Thomas Paine.
