The New Hampshire Gazette And General Advertiser

We are informed that their Excellencies the Commanders in Chief of the British fleet and army in America, with the last division of troops on board, have left Staten Island, on their passage to England. Sir Guy Carleton, Deane Poyntz Esq. Paymaster General, Brook Watson, Esq. Commissary General, William Smith, Esq. and a number of Gentlemen, were passengers in the Ceres frigate, commanded by Capt. Hawkins. In the Cyclops frigate, commanded by Capt. Christian, were Hugh Wallace and James Jauncey, Esqrs. and many other Gentlemen. The Assurance man of War, Capt. Swiney, with a great number of passengers, chiefly officers of the army, sailed for England some days before the above fleet. The Ship Holderness, with the Commissary Department, sailed likewise a few days before them for Halifax, in Nova Scotia, where they are to act in the same line as they were accustomed to do in this city.
