G.J.A. Ducher to Comte de la Luzerne (February 2, 1788)

1

Attacked by Indians, it was in its interest to appear federally inclined in order to obtain help from the present Union. But if Georgia preceded the other Southern States in the adoption of the new Constitution, it can hardly be expected from eagerness to execute it.
