Letter from General Washington to General Ward

v4:298

GENERAL WASHINGTON TO GENERAL WARD.

Cambridge, December 17, 1775.

SIR: The applications for liberty to go to the lines are so frequent that they cause much trouble. You will, therefore, sir, grant passes to such as you may think proper. At the same time I would recommend to you that the officer who will attend upon these occasions be a person of sense, and one who will carefully attend to the conversation of those who meet on the lines.

I am, &c˙, GEORGE WASHINGTON.

To Major-General Ward.
