Extract of a Letter from New-York, to a Gentleman in Annapolis

v1:1188

I have the most perfect satisfaction in acquainting you that this day was made, in our Assembly, a motion for appointing a day for examining the Proceedings of the Continental Congress, and that it was thrown out of the House by a majority of one voice.

Of this event I heartily wish you joy, and that this example may be adopted by the Senators in your Province; but my fears almost preclude the hope of such good.
