measure necessary for the preservation of their rights and liberties. And they presume that the embarrassed state of your government is the only reason that they have not been favoured with their presence. The Commissioners have directed me to transmit you a copy of their proceedings which I now enclose. They have omitted to regulate the prices of labour, &c., for your State, but doubt not from your zealous attachment to the common cause, that similar measures will be immediately adopted by you.

I am with sentiment of respect your most humble servant.
In the name and by order of the Convention,

Your Most Hum" Seryt

[blocks in formation]

Whereas it may be greatly subservient to the spirited and effectual execution of this plan of regulation of prices, that each State represented in this Convention should be assured that the others of them had stopped the circulation of the bills emitted on their respective credits, and had resolved to carry all the other requisitions of Congress expressed in their resolve of November 22d into execution,

Therefore resolved, That the said States be desired, as soon as may be after the receipt of this report, to write circular letters to the other States, giving an account of their resolutions and proceedings thereon.

Signed by order of the Convention,

THOMAS CUSHING, President. The foregoing is a true copy of all the proceedings of the Convention. Attest. HENRY DAGGETT, Secret'.
