Resignation Letter by Lord Adelphi Builds 1775
A dated plea from a noble officer in 1775 to Secretary at War Boron Baxnincvon, requesting retirement from military service over disapproval of American measures. He asserts lifelong duty to the king, seeks to preserve liberty and fidelity of subjects, and asks to retain rank for future service if needed. He laments leaving a family military tradition and stresses honor and constitutional principles as grounds for his decision.
