{"value"=>"<p>Statement in the hand of Abraham Yates Jr. with his revisions, and certification in another hand, signed by Ezra L'Hommedieu, Egbert Benson and Alexander Hamilton, while at Congress. Yates confirms that he will vote yes on the ordinance putting the adopted Constitution into operation, depending on the attendance of other delegates when the final vote takes place. He states his reasons for doing so, although opposed to the Constitution in principle. Also present is a fair copy entirely in Yates' hand (2 p. quarto), with an endorsement in the hand of Abraham G. Lansing, \"Ab[raha]m Yates Jun[ior]r's Cautionary Certificate Respecting His Conduct on the United States Constitution 8 August 1788.\"</p>"}
