Letter from Governor Martin to Lord George Germain.

New York, Novr 6th, 1776.

My Lord,

I have the honor to present to your Lordship Captain Parry, late Commander of His Majesty's Sloop Cruizer, of whose zeal, activity and unremitting attention to His Majesty's service during the whole of his Command in North Carolina, I think it a matter of justice, as well as a point of duty, to bear my testimony to your Lordship, with whom merit never fails to receive all due approbation.

I have the honor &c.,
JO. MARTIN.
