Title:
Benjamin Rush (Philadelphia) letter to [General Nathanael Greene, n.p.], 1782 April 15
Description:
Rush congratulates Greene on his successes in North Carolina, then recommends that he move from Rhode Island to South Carolina, which is more active in manners and government and would suit him better. He then comments upon the country's need for Confederation and for a national character built upon something more than resentment of Great Britain.
