- year: 1786
- place_issued: Richmond
- issuing_press: Dixon & Holt
- author: Virginia. Treasurer's Office.
- notes: Sheet lacks printer credit; this report was published in the Virginia Gazette and Independent Chronicle of Dixon & Holt on August 16, 1786 as part of their duties as public printer; as a public document, this item was also their responsibility, hence the attribution here.
The University of Virginia reports two other copies of this report. One carries the colophon of James Hayes; however, the firm of Dunlap & Hayes was dismissed as public printer on May 5, 1786, a result of their perceived negligence (tardy production of Assembly records); thus that item is likely miscataloged. A second is twice the size of this imprint (42 cm. x 34 cm.) and dated January 1787; that item is a revision of the July report that was printed during the Assembly session of October 16, 1786 to January 11, 1787 (see 1787.003).
