The topic of this meeting was to select an individual to transact all deed sales, and to choose a representative to the congress with a proposal to annex them and the boundaries of their alleged purchase to the colonies: 

     “ That on the seventeenth day of March last , for a large and valuable consideration, Your the memorializes   obtained from the Cherokee Indians assembled at Watauga a grant of considerable territory now called Transylvania , lying on the south side of the river Ohio. They  will not trouble  the honorable Congress with a detail of the risks and dangers to which they have been exposed arising  from the nature of the enterprise itself as well as the wicked attempts of certain Governors and their emissaries: they beg leave, only to acquaint them that , through difficulties and dangers, at a great expense, and with the blood of several of their  followers, they have laid the foundation of this colony, which however mean in it origin will if one may guess from present appearances be one day considerable in America.” ^82\

               Henderson and Company, following the process of these formalities, un precedent in Colonial History; finalized their proposition: 

      “Having our hearts warmed with the same noble spirit that animates the united colonies and moved by the late ministerial and parliamentary usurpation’s, it is the earnest wish of the proprietors of Transylvania to be considered by the colonies brethren engaged in the same great course of liberty and of mankind. ⁸³                

             Therefore, the memorials hope earnestly request, that Transylvania may be added to the number of colonies, and that James Hogg, Esc., be received as our delegate, and admitted to a seat in the honorable Continental Congress.” ⁸⁴
