JUDGE JAS. IREDELL TO EX-GOV. BURKE.

Edenton, Aug. 9th, 1783.

Dear Sir:

I have particular pleasure in inclosing you a letter, which I some time ago took out of the post office for you, hoping then that I should have had an earlier opportunity than the present of transmitting it.

I have sent Mr. Hooper all the news I could collect, which is really very little.

You will oblige me in presenting my respectful compliments to Mrs. Burke, and I hope believe me, with great truth,

Sir, Your obedient humble Servant,
JAS. IREDELL.
