Address of William J. Lewis to Constituents in Congressional District 15.

• imprint_number: 1819.095
• title: Sir—The Congress of the U. States, closed its long and laborious session on the 20th of last month ... Wm. I. Lewis.
• sequence_number: 95
• year: 1819
• place_issued: Virginia
• issuing_press: Uncertain
• author: Lewis, William J. (1766-1828).
• notes: Only known copy, held by the Duke University Library, lacks colophon; Lewis represented the congressional district centered on Lynchburg, so suggesting that this circular letter originated there; however, Lewis had completed a lengthy service in the Assembly before being elected to Congress in 1817, so this may have originated in Richmond; the letter could also have been issued from a Washington press as well, so leaving the question of origin unanswerable without further evidence. Hummel assigned this title to a Virginia press, so the entry here.
