Title
Troops May Be Corrupted
Description
Refers to Mr. Patterson's letter. It is not Hamilton's intention to withdraw more than Cochran's and Henry's Companies. The other troops should remain on the insurgents' scene although he is concerned that some of the troops may be corrupted by staying too long in a disaffected scene.
