Author: Sundry Inhabitants of Virginia.

Issuing Press: Uncertain

Description: 1 sheet [1 pg.]; 32 cm. x 19 cm. (broadside).

Notes

Only copy known extant is held in the state archives at the Library of Virginia; dated at end in manuscript "Dec. 8, 1798" by a clerk of the House of Delegates, indicating submission date. Sheet lacks printer credit; location of road sought by petitioners indicates that this broadside could have been issued from many Virginia presses, so without other evidence an attribution is impracticable.
