Notes
Dated at end in manuscript "Dec. 5, 1798" by a clerk of the House of Delegates, indicating date of submission; blank completed in name of Culpeper County, with manuscript insertion "or Beverley's Bridge" following "Norman's Ford" in the text. Only copy known extant is held in the state archives at the Library of Virginia. Sheet lacks printer credit; location of road sought by petitioners indicates that this broadside issued from either Fredericksburg (closest press) or Alexandria (road terminus), but without other evidence an attribution is impracticable.
