TO GOV. EDMUND RANDOLPH, VIRGINIA, FROM GOV. CASWELL.
(From Executive Letter Book.)

Fayetteville, January 7th, 1787.

Sir:

I had the honor to receive your Letters of the first and sixth of last Month, with a Copy of an Act of your Legislature enclosed in each which have been laid before our General Assembly, and I am happy in enclosing a Copy of a similar Act passed here.

The laudable example Virginia has set I flatter myself will be followed by every State in the Union.

I have the Honor to be with Sentiments of the Greatest respect,
Sir, your most obedt. Servant,
RICHARD CASWELL.
