To George Washington from Henry Knox, 2 September 1782

West Point, 2 Sept. 1782.

Sir,

Enclosed is a state of the case of a Mr Corney. Gen. McDougall speaks well of him, as a person of honor, although opposed to us. It appears to me that this place is rather improper for him, except he is to be kept for a long time. I beg your Excellency’s immediate directions concerning [it]. I am, with great respect, Your Excellency’s most obedt servt

H. Knox.
