Considerations on the Present State of Virginia: Attributed to John Randolph, Attorney General; And Considerations on the Present State of Virginia Examined (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Considerations on the Present State of Virginia: Attributed to John Randolph, Attorney General; And Considerations on the Present State of Virginia Examined
The two pamphlets reprinted in this volume were issued anonymously in 1774. On the title page of the first there has been written by a contemporary hand By John Randolph esq. His majes. Attorney gen]. Of that colony brother to the speaker of the ho. Of assem bly who is chairman at the general congress held at Philadelphia. The only copy I have been able to find is in the New York Public Library. There is nothing in the pamphlet that discloses the author to a certainty. There is strong presumptive evidence, however, that John Randolph was the writer; for he is referred to by Nicholas in the second pamphlet as being one who was in attendance at one or more courts of the colony,1 and again2 as a member of the House of Burgesses who was present when the bill appointing a day for a fast was adopted.
