The Bearer is Capt George Meggs of the 71st Regiment taken in his Passage from N York to London by the Ship Marquis de la Fayette, arrived here to my Address. As this Gentleman has some pressing Business in London and wishes to return thither as soon as possible, I have taken the Liberty of giving him his Parole as far as Paris, and then he will be considered still a Prisoner unless you consent to grant his Parole and permission to go to England. He has a Lady under his escorte who accompanys him. I am as ever Your most Dutiful and affectionate Nephew.
