That there was no way of destroying the town except by landing, which from some movements of the fleet was hourly expected. Should the English be able to effect a landing, we have no doubt but that the brave troops defending Lewes will give a good account of them. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ DE-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
