Sir

I am almost certain, tho I have received no information from you, that I am principally indebted to Sir Henry CLINTON, for the establishment of the Legion-  I always served you, with honor, zeal & fidelity; and I now give you my thanks with heart felt sincerity-

with real truth
And with the greatest Esteem
& Respect Sir,
Your most obedt. & devoted Servt.
Ban. TARLETON

[Sir Henry CLINTON]
