sir, | Highlands 16th June 1782 |
Disagreeable as it is to me to quitt the service of my Country particularly at this time, yet my domestic business renders it indispensible, for which reason I must request that your Excellency will be pleased to accept this my resignation. I am with respect your Excellency’s most Obedient, humble servant
