Forwards an extract from the Governor of South Carolina; the business seems in good condition, and he hopes [Edward] Bancroft will have fewer difficulties than were feared; has sent him all the writings that might be useful in this discussion; the letters of Commodore Gillon seem to settle the question; the South Carolina delegates were struck with them; thinks it would be best for Bancroft to go to Charlestown.
