Famous Quotes / Francis Lewis
Francis Lewis: "At present our greatest anxiety is for the fate of New York which I greatly fear is devoted to distruction. The Ministeral Army on Staten Island are said to be 13,000 strong with a considerable Naval Force, and we hourly expect to hear the City is attacked. If so there is in my opinion little probability of it's being saved."
