[Council to Charles Thomson Esq^r Sec^y of Congress]

Experiencing very great Difficulties from the Want of the Journals
of Congress, we take the Liberty to request that you will be pleased
to favor us with a compleat Set. At the same Time that we are
solicitous for this Favor, we cannot help lamenting that it has never
been in our Power to furnish you with the Laws of this State, but
we will now venture to assure you, that you shall have them all in a
very little Time.
