Coll Pye Enters this house

Coll Pye goes to the Lower house with this Message.

Upper house of Assembly 30th Novem^r 1688.
Herewith is returned the Act for Advancement of Coins
being wholly Deficient and against which there can be no
greater Offender than the Act it self for by this Act this Act is
Destroyed It being vain to think that ever money will be
brought into this Country till it be made Currant and it will
never be Currant whilst any be Excepted from receiving it at
its Currant and inhanced Value, Besides there is no pro-
vision made to prevent abuses and frauds by Clipt and light
Money Wherefore this house desire the Lower house to re-
assume the further Consideration of this Act

Signed p^r Order Tho: Grunwin Cl of Assembly.

Coll Pye returns and Says he has delivered the said Mes-
sage.
