Philadelphia, April 26, 1776.

SIR: I have it in charge from Congress to acquaint you that they have been pleased to accept your resignation as Paymaster-General of the Army, and that there are Superintendents of the Treasury appointed, to whom you are to render your accounts and vouchers, which I will do myself the pleasure of putting into their hands, if you think proper to forward them to me for that purpose.

I have the honour to be, sir, your most obedient and very humble servant,

JOHN HANCOCK, President.

To James Warren, Esq.
