Letter from Josiah Bartlett to the New Hampshire Committee of Safety

v4:24

JOSIAH BARTLETT TO THE NEW-HAMPSHIRE COMMITTEE OF SAFETY.

Philadelphia, November 27, 1775.

GENTLEMEN: Being in great haste when I sealed my last letter to you, I inadvertently omitted the enclosed letter

v4:25

from the agents, nor was I sensible of the omission till I found it among my papers last Saturday. The enclosed resolves I am directed by Congress to transmit to you.

I should be very glad to be informed of all the circumstances of our publick affairs. I think that a particular knowledge of them would often be of very great advantage. But as I now hope I shall set out for New-Hampshire in a fortnight or three weeks, I expect I shall not be able to hear from you after you receive this till my return, unless, contrary to my present hopes, I shall be detained here for the winter.

I am, Gentlemen, your friend and humble servant,

JOSIAH BARTLETT.

To the Committee of Safety for New-Hampshire.
