Sent to the House this following Message
By the honble Council June the 9th 1692.
Ist This Board perusing the Act for Payment of publick
charge find an Article to his Excellency the Governor of
Gratuity which this Board find very unsuitable for his Great
Charges and trouble and undertaking in the Peacable and
happy Settlement of the Government of this province specially
Considering a larger Gratuity to a Person of an inferior
Capacity in the same act allowed which this Board desires
may be rectified
2dly This Board finding that in the Accot of Mr Lynes for
publick expences of this honble Council that each particular
Article is charged to their particular Accot for which Reason
as it is informed to the Board that an Order of your House
Referred the said Lynes to them for Satisfaction Notwith-
standing by his Excellencys special Command they Came to
attend him upon his arrival upon Surrender of the Govern-
ment and since Called down upon Emergent Occasions which
also this Board desire may be Rectified
3dly This Board likewise desire that some Consideration
may be taken in Relation to the last years Levy that your
house would propose some method of full Satisfaction of all
Bills drawn by the Naval Officers that are in the Country or
others that may come in Protested on the same Account next
Shipping wherein if due Care be not taken it will destroy and
render the Credit of the Country insignificant & Poor very
injurious to many good People living in and Trading to the
same
Signed p Order
