Extract of a letter from gentleman at Peck's Kill, to
another in this town. December 4. 1776.
I am now preparing to set off for the Jersies, to which
place General Lee with his division is now bending his
course. . . [12 lines] --The inhabitants of Bergen Country,
and the lower part of Orange have gone in, and made their
submission to the King in the person of his Commissioners;
but I trust their loyalty will be but short-liv'd, and that
General Lee will teach them to dance to a tune very
different from "God save the King."
