After General Burgoyne's surrender, he was allowed to return to
England on parole. Thinking himself ill-treated by the Govern-
ment, and having been elected member of Parliament for Preston,
he joined the opposition; whereupon an official order was sent to
him, signifying that it was the king's pleasure that he should re-
turn to America and rejoin his captive army. He remonstrated,
and was again ordered, and in consequence resigned all his civil
and military employments. In this letter he gives an explanation.
of his conduct.
