Resolved a Message be sent to the Council concerning the
Assembly Office &^ta Viz.

By the House of Delegates
6^th Nov. 1712

This House having taken Care to fit up several offices in
the Stadt House and upon viewing the same find the Room
allotted for the Assembly Office to be ill convenient and con-
sidering the Largeness of the Room allotted for the Council
Office presume it may be sufficient also for the Naval Office
therefore are of Opinion the Room formerly allotted for the
Naval Office be now appointed for the Assembly Office and
the Pidgeon Holes Desks &^ta put in the Assembly Office may
be removed into the Chancery Office which is yet unfurnished
and the Door of the Assembly Office be quite taken away
which will give more Light into the Passage to all the upper
Rooms in the Stadt House and desire the Honble President
and Council will concur with them in ordaining the same.
