Ne C 2606 : Letter from General Sir Henry Clinton, to H.F.C. Pelham-Clinton, 2nd Duke of Newcastle under Lyne; 3 July 1779

Since I finished my letter to your Grace
I find that L[ieutenan]t Gen[eral] Jones intends to
go to England by this opportunity, I must
beg leave to refer your Grace to him,
his ill health prevented his taking any very
active command among us but his
intention as Commandant of N. York
gave him an opportunity of knowing
a great deal of our affairs.
