To Brigadier General Anthony Wayne
[West Point, July 31, 1779]
Dr. Sir,
I am directed by the General to inform you, that he has received information, that the enemy are in the Jerseys in force. This will probably give us something to do. We have no particulars.
Your most Obedt servant
A Hamilton A D C
