THE HERALD; A GAZETTE FOR THE COUNTRY, New York, Nov. 9, 1796  Page 3 has the New York House Assembly's response to the governor's address, followed by the governor's "Reply" signed in type: John Jay. Then also the State Senate's response to Jay's address which is again acknowledged by him signed in type: John Jay.
Just prior to Jay becoming New York's second governor he served as the very first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
Four pages, very nice condition.
