GOV. CASWELL TO BENJ. HAWKINS.
[From Executive Letter Book.]

North Carolina, June 7th, 1786.

Sir:

I had the honor to receive your letter of the 11th Ulto. with its enclosures; and it is truly pleasing to me, that I have it in my power to answer you in such a manner, as I flatter myself will prove satisfactory.

The Assembly Sir, in their last Session passed an Act to restore Mr. Bridgen, but I have left the letter open, that your Excellency may if you please peruse the Act.

I have the honor to be
With the utmost respect & esteem, Sir,
Your Excellency's mo. ob & very humbl. Servt.,
R. CASWELL.
