Sir

I have receiv'd intelligence that the british Ships are drove out of Boston Bay, and that two Transports are taken with 210 Soldiers on board ー think it will be best if you should take any Prizes Eastward of the Shoals it Safest to send them to boston ー

Should the Providence not get to Boston where she is Order'd you will call on Mr John Bradford and take a Vessel Loaded with Coal & Convoy to the Cape of Philadelphia or into the River I am your Friend
