Colonel Sargent to General Heath

v2:976

Half-past two o' clock at night, Dobb' s Ferry, October 10, 1776.

SIR: I have just arrived at Dobbs' s Ferry. Very peaceable here; can see nothing of the enemy. There is not any of the enemy landed. We have no ammunition on the road for the small arms. The ships are about three miles above this place, where I shall order a party immediately.

I am your most humble servant,

PAUL D˙ SARGENT.

To Major-General Heath.
