Dunmore signed the proclamation issued by John Murray on November 7, 1775. Lord Murray was the governor of the colony of Virginia, he was fourth Earl of Dunmore and was known as Lord Dunmore.
This proclamation declared the martial law and promised that the slaves would be freed if they ran away from their owners and joined the royal forces. It was proclaimed on November 15.
