JAMES COOR TO GOV. CASWELL.
[From Executive Letter Book.]

New Bern June 14th 1778.

Sir:

Capt. Davis sends to your Excellency for a blank register for his vessel, if convenient please send me half a dozen; I will pay for them and those already received the next time I have the pleasure of seeing you in Town.

Thursday last the suit against Dr. Gaston for killing Mr. Davis's bull was determined in Court and the Jury found the Doctor not guilty.

The detachment from the Craven Militia are setting off for Kingston, I believe they are supplied with every necessary and are in order to march for the Grand Army.

I remain Dr Sir with the greatest respect,
Your Excellency's mo. ob. servt,
JAMES COOR.
