Extract of a letter to an officer in Boston, dated Corke,
September 8, 1775. People are much divided in their
sentiments about the Americans. . . [29 lines, report on
sympathy in Britain for American cause and reluctance of
citizens to enlist.] There have been no less than five
parties at once in Charleville, and after stunning the town,
God knows how long, with their fifes and drums, they were
able to pick up only one recruit, who was under Mr. Robert's
influence. . .
