| Abstract | Transcription of a letter from George Wythe to Thomas Jefferson. The letter likely references the congressional resolution from June of 1776 that recommended that colonial legislatures pass laws related to treason. Wythe informs Jefferson that his report on the value of coins has not been acted on. Amongst other quick notes, Wythe writes about the movement of the British Army in New York. | ||
