TO EDMUND PENDLETON.mad. mss.

Philad^a. Oct^r 9^th, 1781.

D^r. Sir,—

Having sent you the arguments on one side of the judiciary question relating to the property of Virg^a. seized by Mr. Nathan, it is but reasonable that you should see what was contended on the other side. With this view, although I in some measure usurp the task of Mr. Jones, I enclose the paper of Wednesday last. As it may escape Mr. Jones I also enclose a copy of Mr. Adams memorial to the States General. I wish I could have informed you of its being lodged in the archives of their High Mightinesses instead of presenting it to you in print.
