GOV. JOHNSTON TO HUGH WILLIAMSON.
[From Executive Letter Book.]

Edenton, 10th June, 1788.

I am favoured with your Letters of the 23rd & 26th of May, and now send you the printed Sheet of the Acts of our last Session of Assembly containing the Acts referred to in yours of the 26th. I wish it may come up to the Expectations of Congress. I expect shortly to see the Secretary and will get him to Certify a Copy of it should it be necessary. I have not yet been able to procure a Copy of the Journals, tho’ I have repeatedly applied for them. The Printer has promised to send a Copy very soon, when I will forward the Extract you desire.

I am, &c., &c.,
SAM. JOHNSTON.
