298 LAND-HOLDER'S ASSISTANT.

the governor's order to you, of the 22d of March last be
suspended, and that all locations, settlements, and grants of
land to the westward of Fort Cumberland be stopped until
their further pleasure shall be signified to the contrary; of
which you will be pleased to take notice and govern yourselves
accordingly. I am likewise directed to transmit to the lord
proprietary's guardians, by the earliest opportunity, an
account of every step taken in consequence of the above
mentioned order, and also of all such settlements and locations
of land (if any) as have been at any time made beyond the
limits mentioned in it, since the year 1763, and more
particularly since the death of the late lord proprietary; you will
therefore be pleased to furnish me with a list of all the
warrants that have been issued out of your office from the year
1763, to the present time, to affect any lands to the westward
of Fort Cumberland, with their respective dates and
locations, and also, with a list of all the certificates of surveys
made and returned by the surveyor in pursuance of such
warrants; that I may agreeable to the instructions which I have
received, transmit the same to the lord proprietary's
guardians."

            I am, gentlemen,

                Your humble servant,

                                        RICHD. LEE.

"    To the hon'ble Benedict
    Calvert and George Steuart,
    Esquires, judges of the lord
    proprietary's land office."

        LIBER. W.S. No. 17, folio 261.
