Alnwich, [England], February 28, 1781. My dear Sir Henry,
My late stay at this place has hindered me from personally
conversing with those from whom I should have liked to have
been informed of the particulars of what is going on in your
part of the world. . . [38 lines, a letter from Lord Percy
to Sir Henry Clinton]
Indeed, notwithstanding our situation is so critical a one,
we seem to interest ourselves much more about the fate of a
French dancer, than the fate of this country. . . [1/4
column with end of letter and editor's comment.]
