Given under my hand, as governor, and under the seal of the Commonwealth, at Richmond, the 7th day of June, 1792. Henry Lee.

Notes
Originally set for March 31, 1792, this forthcoming session was rescheduled for November; here the governor moved up the convening date to October 1, 1792. Sheet lacks printer credit; as an official document, printing this decree was the responsibility of the public printer; Augustine Davis held that position from April 1791 to November 1799, so the attribution here.
