Daniel Carroll to Thomas Sim Lee

I have only a moment to forward the enclosd by the Bearer. A flag is just arrivd from Charles Town, among the passengers Genl. Moultrie who says that the Troops under Lord Rawdan after throwing in a reinforcement to the Garrison at 96 had retreated to Orangeburgh, & were much harasd on their retreat by the Horse under Lee & Sumpter. Genl. Green had been reinforced & again Laid seige to 96, which Genl. Moultrie thinks must Fall.

You will see in the paper some of the intercepted Letters. The most important are yet to be publish’d. Present me to Mrs. Lee.

I am Dr Sr., Most Affectionately Yrs,

Danl. Carroll
