Nathaniel Hazard to the Committee of Arrangement

v3:1141

NATHANIEL HAZARD TO THE COMMITTEE OF ARRANGEMENT.

Fishkill, 9th December, 1776.

Mr˙ Hobart desired me at Fairfield to inform Mr˙ Duane or Mr˙ Duer that, he had taken the liberty to open a letter from the Committee of Arrangement appointing John Grenell a Captain, who, he said, was at Providence; and he was so confident Mr˙ Grenell would decline, (as he resigned a company of Artillery,) that he begged the commission might not be kept vacant, and begged to recommend Captain Nathaniel Platt, who served in Colonel Smith' s regiment, as an excellent officer.

NATH' L HAZARD.
