Head-Quarters, Ramapo, June 30, 1780.
Agreeably to your request, my dear Baron, I communicated your project
to the General. Happily the inactivity of the enemy has given us time
to make dispositions which render the calling out of the militia
unnecessary; and the whole has been accordingly countermanded.
The General requests that when you have completed the object of your
errand in your department, and put things in train, you will rejoin the
army.
