TIMOTHY BLOODWORTH’S RESIGNATION.

August 13th, 1787.

Dear Sir:

I beg leave to acquaint you that some particular reasons have induced me to decline serving as a Delegate in the Congress of the United States, and hope your Excellency will consider this as my resignation of that appointment.

With the utmost Esteem and respect, I remain, Dear Sir,
Your very Humble Servt.,
TIMOTHY BLOODWORTH.
