WILLIAM PACA TO ROBERT R. LIVINGSTON.
In Council, Annapolis, April 4th, 1783.
Sir,
We have been honored with your favor of the 18th ultimo.
The requisitions made in your former letters have been regularly laid before the Legislature of this State, (Maryland) and we are very sorry to find that the early attention which their importance merited has not been paid to them.
The Assembly at their last session, passed an act directing persons to be appointed in each county to ascertain upon oath the damages done by the enemy within their respective counties, and to report the same to this Board. As soon as we are furnished with their returns, you may rest assured, Sir, that no time shall be lost in transmitting to you, properly authenticated, the information you have been solicitous to obtain.
With great regard and respect, &c.
WILLIAM PACA.
SIR GUY CARLETON TO ROBERT R. LIVINGSTON.
New York, April 6th, 1783.
