By his Excy the Govr and Councill in
Assembly May 13th 1701.
Gent. You cannot make an estimate of what the charge
will be in cleansing and mending the armes out of Keller in
each County. It is thought fitt that the Collo of each County
view them and keep them in good repaire which are now
Serviceable and gett all the rest mended and wt charge it
amots to in each County that the respective Collo draw a note
upon his Excy the Govr who will pay the money and since
Experience shews us the Great Spoile that has been made in
the armes abroade and it is believed that most of the Coty
have allready armes for their present Defence and in Case
any are not Supplyed upon their application to the Govr they
will be better furnished for the better preserveing the Armes
for the future in Case of a Xtian enemy, it is adjudged neces-
sary that a Considerable quantity of Armes be lodged here
