PRESDT. J. RUTLEDGE OF S. C., TO GOV. CASWELL.
[From Executive Letter Book.]

Charlestown, Feby. 25th, 1780.

Dr. Sir:

This will be delivered by Mr. Kinlock, one of the Delegates of this state, who is on his way to Congress. He will give you the fullest information respecting the force and object of the Enemy now in this state, so that it is unnecessary for me to do so. I will therefore only request your attention to the representations which he will lay before you.

And am, with much esteem, Dr. Sir,
Your mo. ob. servt.,
J. RUTLEDGE.
