Dear Sir:
Nothing important has occurred since my last by Genl. Caswell. A few days past General St. Clair wrote me that he should march the 15th inst. from Richmond to Williamsboro, and I am taking every step in my power to prevail to rid this State of the Enemy at Cape Fear, and have hopes of suceeding. I have sent an Express to Genl. Rutherford for particular intelligence & should he return & bring information that the Enemy can be taken without the help of shipping (which some persons here affirm with assurance) I have no doubt but the Genl. will take them on his route Southerly.
All Wheeler's family join me in wishing health & happiness to Mrs. Nash, yourself & Family.
P. S. When I get the Articles of the late Capitulation I shall send you a copy.
