W Jones

The brother officers of Chauncey entertain but one opinion of him and that is in the highest degree honorable to him.

RC (DLC). Docketed by JM. Enclosure not found, but it may have conveyed information similar to that contained in the letter enclosed in John Armstrong to JM, 25 July 1814.
