Rufus King To Henry Knox About Lack Of Progress At The Convention 11 July 1787

Writes in full, I wish it was in my power to inform you that we had progressed a single step since you left us - I say progressed, this expression must be defined by my own political creed, which you are very well acquainted with - I can form no conjecture of the Report, or separation, of the convention - If I had returned to N-YK with you or with our very able and sagacious Friend [Alexander] Hamilton, I should have escaped much Vexation, enjoyed much pleasure and have gratified the earnest wishes & desires of Mrs. King. Signer of the U.S. Constitution.
