 | Letters of Mrs. Adams, |  |
I have received all the papers you sent, the oration
and the magazines. In the small papers I sometimes
find pieces begun and continued, (for instance, Johnston's
speech,) but am so unlucky as not to get the
papers in order, and miss of seeing the whole.
The removal of the army seems to have stopped
the current of news. I want to know to what part
of America they are now wandering. It is reported
and credited, that Manly has taken a schooner belonging
to the fleet, richly laden with money, plate,
and English goods, with a number of Tories. The
particulars I have not yet learned. Yesterday the
remains of our worthy General Warren were dug
up upon Bunker's hill, and carried into town, and on
Monday are to be interred, with all the honors of
war.
