Knox, Commander at West Point, reports that he did not receive Washington's two most recent dispatches. Plans to continue to discharge the invalids and those whose times of service may shortly expire. Requires Washington's instructions regarding preparing the barracks [at West Point] for 3,000 men for the winter. Remarks, The british unreasonably protract the evacuation of New York. They appear to be ready either to go or stay as shall be most condusive [sic] to their views. Major [Sebastian] Bauman, recently in New York, reported that the British would not get away untill December. If his conjecture should be right they will hardly go at that time. Your Excellency is probably posses'd of such information, as to enable you to decide with precision as per their intuitions. Notes that Lieutenant Colonel Villefranche (Chevalier de Villefranche), Major [Pierre] L'Enfant, and Major [Stephen] Rochefontaine would be well pleased to stay in the American Service. They wish however to retain their rank in the french Army and to go to France this winter.
