Letter from Stephen Moore and John Barnwell to General N. Greene
From North Carolina State Records
PRISON SHIP FORBAY, CHARLES TOWN HARBOUR,
18th May, 1781
We have the honor of inclosing (sic) you a copy of a letter from Colonel balfour commandant of
Charlestown, which was handed us immediately on our being put on board this ship. The letter speaking for
itself needs no comment; your wisdom will best dictate the notice it merits. We just beg leave to observe
that should it fall to the lot of all, or any of us, to be made victims, agreeable to the menaces therein
contained, we have only to regret that our blood cannot be disposed of more to the advancement of the
glorious cause to which we have adhered. A separate Roll of our names attends this letter.
With the greatest respect, we are, Sir,
Your most obedient and most H�ble Servants,
STEPHEN MOORE,
Lieut. Colo. No. Carolina Militia
JOHN BARNWELL,
Major So. Carolina Militia
For ourselves and one hundred and thirty other Prisoners.
To Major Gen�l N. Greene
