to take Care of the Convicts from the 25th of Septr.
1776. I am his principal Deputy. Some of
the Felons are a little refractory, but upon the whole
their Behaviour has been good.

There are 40 People besides myself to take care
of them – 6 or 7 Principal Officers besides myself – none
of the 40 are Felons.

the Shore.
