Maryland.

J sent a Sample of the Maryland money with directions for
the procureing it to pass because J vnderstood by letters this
yeare from the Governor and yow and others that there was
no doubt but the people there would accept of it, w^ch if wee
find they do, there wilbe meanes found to supply yow all there
with money enough: but though it would be a very great
advantage to the Colony, that it should pass Currant there,
and an vtter discouradgment for the future supply of any
more, if there be not a Certaine establishment this yeare and
assurance of its being vented and Currant there, yet it must
not be imposed vpon the people but by a lawe there made by
their Consents in a Gennerall Assembly, w^ch J pray faile not to
signifie to the Governor and Councill there together from me
by shewing them this letter from
