11 August 1781
Eustis, William, 1753-1825
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Henry Knox
Reports that General [Arthur] St. Clair arrested Lieutenant Colonel Forrest, possibly Thomas Forrest, on a complaint made by Eustis "for discharging a man belonging to the Regt. for three half Johannes." Apparently Forrest has failed to resign his post, and Eustis wants to know who will take charge in his stead. Says Forrest "continues speckulating."
