Signers, and those who refused to sign, in Dutchess County

v3:600

Fishkill, August 23, 1775.

SIR: Enclosed is the return of the persons who have signed the Association, and of those who have refused . In the latter you find many erasures, occasioned by their signing afterwards. This affair has been delayed thus long, on account of pursuing lenient measures.

I am, by order of the Committee, your most obedient servant,

DIRCK G˙ BRINCKERHOFF, Ch' n.

To Peter V˙ B˙ Livingston, Esq˙, President of the Provincial Congress at New-York.
