Full Description:
John Tunno to Leslie. Charlestown. Complaining of a late decision of the Board of Police against him and declaring his intention of appealing to the Commander-in-Chief unless Leslie will interfere and rectify this. Refers to the enclosed memorial. Remarks on the policy of the Board which he says is calculated to strengthen the rebel interest. At the foot is a copy of Leslie's answer of 3 February, that he is sorry the Board does not meet with his approbation but as it was established by Lord Cornwallis, and approved by higher powers, he cannot take it upon himself to alter its form or establishment.
