- notes: Sheet lacks printer credit; John Dixon was public printer from the death of his partner, John Hunter Holt, in June 1787, until his death in April 1791; while he was often compelled to subcontract the public work to Augustine Davis and Thomas Nicolson during the sessions of Assembly, Dixon readily produced the items required by the state's executive branch during the intervals between sessions.
This letter clarifies the procedure for examining the veracity of pension claims and for the appointment of justices of the peace.
