Believe me, sir, no one can more cordially approve of the wise and prudent measures of your Administration.
None can serve it with purer intentions than I have done or with a more disinterested zeal.
Those who are well informed about their rights and duties make the best citizens.
Under these circumstances, to discharge the dragoons does not seem to comport with economy.
