GENERAL WASHINGTON TO THE COMMITTEE OF COUNCIL OF MASSACHUSETTS-BAY.

Cambridge, November 24, 1775.

GENTLEMEN: Captain Aaron Willard recommends Mr. Moses Child to be his colleague in the journey to Nova-Scotia. As I know nothing of this gentleman, I cannot approve or disapprove of him. Mr. Willard informs me he is well known unto Doctor Taylor. If you think him trustworthy, you will please to fill up the instructions with his name, which Captain Willard will give unto you.

I am, with great respect, yours, &c.,

GEORGE WASHINGTON.

To the Hon. Committee of Council of Massachusetts-Bay.

P. S. You will please to furnish Captain Willard with letters to Captain O' Bryan and to Colonel Cargill to give every assistance to him and his companion on their tour.
