This pamphlet containing the messages between the two houses was published by order of the House of Delegates who,
on December 30, 1779, ordered "That two hundred copies of the messages between the two houses, respecting the confisca-
tion of British property, be immediately printed." The Continental Congress had requested money from the state and the
House of Delegates, who were opposed to raising the taxes, proposed that the seizing and confiscation of British property
would be a solution. The Senate, however, refused to pass the bill and a deadlock ensued. The House resolved "That the
voters of this state be earnestly requested to express their sentiments on the present difference between the two branches
of legislature, respecting the seizing and confiscating British property within this State." The House of Delegates was
successful in a later session. (See Bibliography of Imprints, 95.)
