{"value"=>"Has received from Col. Allen his message relating to the disposition of the Provincial records, asking for an opinion; has consulted Mr. Skettowe, Secretary, Mr. Gordon, Chief Justice, and Mr. Irving Rec. Gen; they all agree that the King's Civil Governor should have possession of them; but the Earl of Shelborne has told him that Sir Guy Carleton has been fully instructed as to the King's mind on all important subjects; and he may think proper to give the records to the State of South Carolina under Gov. Matthews; Mr. Gordon and Mr. Irving will deliver this letter and explain further."}
