Richmond, December 1st, 1786.

Sir:

I feel a peculiar satisfaction in forwarding to your Excellency the enclosed Act of our Legislature. As it breathes a spirit truly Federal, and contains an effort to support our General Government which is now reduced to the most awful crisis, permit me to solicit your Excellency's Co-operation at this trying moment.

I have the Honor to be,
Your Excellency's Most obedient
And Humble Servant,
EDW. RANDOLPH.
