GOV. CASWELL TO S. MOSELEY, ESQ.
[From Executive Letter Book.]


Dobbs, 28th Aug't. 1777.

Sir:—

I had your fav'r of the 25th inst. inclosing ten dollars. The Resolutions of Congress respecting Admiralty Courts 'tis not in my power to furnish you. I never had but one copy, and I believe that is at New Bern. Your Com'n as Judge of the port of Brunswick, together with that of the Marshall are herewith inclosed, also 41½ dollars. The fees of the Com's are at foot. I congratulate you on the arrival of the prise, and am with respect & esteem,

Sir, Yours &c.,
RICHARD CASWELL.
