Full Description:
Major-General Daniel Jones to Captain John Smith. New York. Brower and Lashaer were brought prisoners to New York, Brower in September 1777 and Lashaer in March 1778, for the murder of Mr Richards in the 'Jerseys'. Imagines that the Commander-in-Chief wants no information concerning their crime. They are treated like the other prisoners in the Provost and are well clothed. No visitors are allowed to prisoners in the Provost, bad use having been made of this indulgence. Mr Pintard will inform you he has never been refused sending them any necessaries he though proper.
