There is one event which if it takes place certainly indicates a total evacuation. I mean the evacuation of Rhode Island. We have intelligence of a number of Empty transports going to Rhode Island if so we conclude it is for the purpose of taking off the Garrison... it is all conjecture we cannot draw a conclusion of what will be done by what they might to do- for they often act directly against their own interest...
