440 Proceedings of the Council of Maryland, 1681-85/6.

M^r Dent should be bound with Dennis for them, but he

refused and told Haron his owne word was Sufficient, and soe
away he went, left the goods behind; and is all that ever he
had to doe with Dennis; wherefore if this be the true State of
the case, which he must be required to make out, you are then
to consider of the best and neerest way to doe him justice,
which I leave to your considerations, and desire that nothing
may be omitted on your part for the finding out the truth of
this matter, that if any erroneous proceedings have been, they
may be rectified according to reason and justice, all w^ch is
earnestly recommended to you by
