Address of Mr˙ Alsop, Mr˙ Low, and Mr˙ Jay, to the Publick

v1:317

New-York, July 20th, 1774.

To the Respectable Public — We conceive the sense of our fellow-citizens, relative to the Delegates to represent them at the proposed Congress, (notwithstanding the proceedings of yesterday at the Coffee House,) remains so uncertain, that until the sentiments of the town are ascertained with great precision, we can by no means consider ourselves, or any others, nominated as Delegates, duly chosen or authorized, to act in so honourable and important a station.

JOHN ALSOP,
ISAAC LOW,
JOHN JAY.
