I fear some misadventure has happened to ANDRÉ; I have to offer myself & my Corps for any Coup that might assist him; I have forty Cavalry as gallant men as ever were in the field; & horses capable of marching seventy mile without halting-

I have often risked my life, but never as with so much pleasure, in a case where attachment to my General, private Friendship & public duty, all call upon in the most feelg. manner-

I am in the greatest Anxiety & distress

Yours Affectionatly
J G SIMCOE

At Mr. WEIRs
