An address to be transmitted to Thomas Hutchinson, Esq; by
the first ship. . . [critical letter of 1/2 column.  At
end:]
To sum all in one word, you may know the disposition of
Americans towards you when you are told, that a creature so
universally detested among soldiers as you are in your
native land, after having been stripped of the King's
clothing, would be, with hideous solemnity and "sullen dub,"
drummed out of the army, with a halter about his neck.
[signed] Millions.
