Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Boston Committee of Correspondence published this circular letter, which includes the resolutions of the Virginia House of Burgesses to create a committee of correspondence. The letter only identifies the sender of the resolutions as "a Gentleman of distinction in Virginia," but it was most likely Richard Henry Lee, who had begun a correspondence with Samuel Adams. Adams had played a pivotal role in creating the Boston committee in November of 1772. William Cooper, the Boston town clerk, signed and approved the circular. |
