Captain Phillips, of the British army, whipped in New York in 1784.
PHILADELPHIA, February 4, 1784.
On Saturday last, was whipped at the cart's tail, for robbery,
one of George the Third's pretty subjects. This fellow, who now
goes by the name of Captain Phillips, under his good friend Sir
Harry Clinton, learned such a knack of thieving while he
commanded a whale-boat along this coast, under his good master,
that now, having lost his protection, he and a number more of
those lads called Loyalists are swarming amongst us, and have set
up business in a small way; and though many of them may not
choose to steal themselves, yet, by harbouring and encouraging
others, may do much mischief to the good inhabitants of these
states.
