Full Description:
Commissioners Campbell and Elliot to Commissioners Heath and Knox. Tappan. Discussion with regard to the powers they each have for dealing with negotiations about the situation of the exchange of prisoners. Their own powers they state are exactly similar to those that the British Commissioners acted under at the meeting held at Elizabeth Town in April last, but they are unable to enter into negotiations with Washington's Commissioners because their powers differ so essentially.
