Albany Committee to New-York Congress

v2:1675

Albany Committee Chamber, July 17, 1775.

GENTLEMEN: Enclosed you have four letters, three from Captain Edmunston to different persons in Europe, which we had appointed a Committee to peruse, who report that they judge it proper they should be sent open to the Provincial Congress for their inspection. The other is a letter from Colonel Guy Johnson, which we received with a verbal license to open it, which we have presumed to do, and have even taken upon us to give General Schuyler a copy thereof, which we hope you will put the best construction upon.

We are, Gentlemen, your humble servants. By order of Committee,

ABRAHAM YATES, JR.

To the Gentlemen of the Provincial Congress.
