Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Draft in Samuel Shaw's hand. Writes, I am sorry to acquaint you, that the endeavors of your friends to obtain permission for your return to Boston have proved ineffectual. Some late acts of Congress and of the Legislature of Massachusetts, render it impossible for you to come out from New-York, either by the way of Jersey or any of the neighboring places. The only possible one in which you can return to your friends, will be by going in a flag to Rhode Island, and thence applying to the authority of Massachusetts for leave to proceed to Boston. Or, on your arrival at Rhode Island, you might immediately repair to Boston and present yourself to the Governor. I wish you could come out in a manner that would be more agreeable to you - but there is no alternative. Adds that after seeing Winslow at Tappan, wrote to Winslow's brother because he thought it would be a great satisfaction for him to hear from a person who had seen you in health. Knox's authorship is inferred because of previous letters written by Knox to make travel arrangements for Winslow. Address directs the letter to Winslow, in care of Joshua Loring, Esq., Commissary General of Prisoners in New York.
