By the Council in Assembly December 17th 1708.

Upon communicating to his Excellency your Resolve not to
revive the Act for the better ordering and regulating the
Militia he was pleased to declare he could not have expected
any Persons who had the least Respect for their Country would
ever consent to leave it defenceless especially in this Time of
War and if you are jealous of the fifty thousand Pounds of
Tobacco being made use of, by the Governor and Council his
Excellency says he depises so mean a Thought that should
ballance with the Safety of the Province and as he never made
Use of that Tobacco so had no Thought of it. And we being
well satisfied it's highly necessary that Act be kept in force,
without which the Government will not be secure in Case of
any Disturbance recommend to you to reassume the Consid-
eration thereof, and pass the Bill as agreed to.
Signed p Order W Bladen Cl. Co.

their Vote or not ? Carried by the Majority of Votes in the

bated Put to the Question whether the said Bill shall pass or not?
