THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, Nov. 5, 1782  Page 6 has a brief item noting: "Sir Guy Carleton has stated to government the numbers & situation of the Loyalists in such strong & striking colours; shewn so clearly the impolicy & inhumanity of abandoning them to the tyranny of Congress...".
The back page has an item: "When Sir Guy Carleton went out to America last, he had no knowledge of the design to offer unconditional independence; and since he has been obliged, as a servant of the Crown, to intimate that proposal to Congress, he & his people find their situation so irksome as to wish a recall...".
