Book Synopsis Henry Knox to Lucy Knox Expressing His Sorrow at Being Apart and Warning Her of Forthcoming Danger, 22 May 1777 by : Henry Knox
Book excerpt: Discusses their recent exchange, noting that he had not received some of her letters due to the postman's mistake. Expresses how much he misses her, emphasizing that nothing but an obligation to his country could separate them. Mentions the threat posed by General John Burgoyne, stating that Lucy, in Boston, should get a House in the Country as a Retreat. He says he cannot be sure of visiting Lucy due to the danger of the roads and the uncertainty of his location. In closing, notes I shall always make it a rule to write you by the post, and expect the same from you.
