THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, Nov. 9, 1775  Page 2 includes: "...a letter from Ethan Allen, who styles himself a Colonel in the provincial service, & was taken prisoner in the late skirmish near Montreal, to Gen. Prescott." dated Sept. 25, 1775. A portion of the letter includes: "...I find myself prisoner, and in irons...I expect an honourable and humane treatment as an officer of my rank and merit should have..." signed in type: Ethan Allen. If is very rare to find period newspapers with letters signed by him. There is a brief postscript following this letter: "The author of the above letter is an outlaw, and a reward of three hundred pounds is offered by the New York Assembly for apprehending him."
The back page has a few bits on the Revolutionary War as well. Eight pages, 8 1/4 by 11 1/4 inches, very nice, clean condition.
