To Col. Joseph Vose, preparing to retreat after news of victory of British fleet: "make every preparation to march the troops by land to the Head of Elk…. I request you will use every Endeavour to persuade the people that we are going to join Gnl [Nathanael] Greene's Army - I shall set out to morrow for Annapolis where I expect to find the troops either gone (if the General has so ordered) or in a perfect Readiness to March."
