  Sheet lacks printer credit; the firm of Dixon & Holt was appointed as the public printer in June 1786, succeeding that of Dunlap & Hayes, who were dismissed on May 5, 1786, as a result of their perceived negligence (tardy production of Assembly records), hence the attribution here.
  Act is reprinted as Chap. XII of the Acts of October 1786 in Hening's Statutes (XII: 258-260).
