I did myself the honor the day before yesterday to transmit your Excellency a Copy of an Act of Congress of the 1st Inst, directing, among other things, that a Committee be appointed to repair to the Inhabitants on the New-Hampshire Grants for the purposes mentioned in it. The Committee was appointed Yesterday. They are the Honorable Oliver Elseworth, & Jesse Root of Connecticut, Timothy Edwards of Massachusetts-Bay, Doctor Witherspoon of New-Jersey, and Colonel Atlee of Pennsylvania.

   Notice will be immediately sent to each of the Gentlemen of their Appointment, & I shall take the Liberty of pressing them to enter on the business committed to them without delay.(1)
