Philadelphia, Dec. 30, 1778. To Benjamin Harrison: Dear Sir:
I have seen nothing since I came here, oBenjamin Harrison: Dear Sir:
I have seen nothing since I came here, on the 22d inst., to change my opinion of men or measures, but abundant reasons to be convinced that our affairs are in a more distressed, ruinous, and deplorable condition than they have been since the commencement of the war. By a faithful laborer in the cause, by a man, who is daily expending his private estate, for not even the by one who wishes the prosperity of America most devotedly, but sees it, or thinks he sees it, on the brink of ruin, you are be sought most earnestly, my dear Col. Harrison, to exert yourself in endeavoring to rescue your country by sending your best and ablest men to Congress.
These characters must not slumber nor sleep at home
