John Hamilton to General Mathews Jan. 4, 1795

British Consul's Office, Norfolk, Va., 4th January, 1795 — General Mathews.
Sir: His Majesty’s sloop of war Lynx is arrived, and is brought to at the Fort. As she has on board a number of stores, &c, belonging to the Thetis, I have to request that you will order her to be permitted to pass by the Forts, that she may land the articles above mentioned, after which she will proceed immediately to Hampton Roads, as I have not heard that she has suffered any damage.
I am, &c,
JOHN HAMILTON.
