A Message from the Lower House by M^r Dulany and three
others

By the Lower House of Assembly Nov^r 3^d 1722
May It please your Hon^rs
This House having considered your message of the second
Instant by Col Holland, is of opinion that the bringing in a
Bill for the Distribution of the money in the Treasurer's
Hands into so many Parts as it should be, is impracticable ;
without continuing the Session till the next week, because
there will be a necessity in such a Bill of Appointing Persons
to receive and apply the money, And as to any Danger the
Treasurer of the Western Shore may Apprehend of being
robb'd there are some Gentlemen will take some of the money
and give undoubted Security to pay it, when it shall be de-
manded, which will be an Ease to the Treasurer in that Par-
ticular; But if he is unwilling to part with the money and
uneasy to keep it, This House thinks there is no Difficulty in
finding a Person that will undertake that Charge, and give the
necessary Security.

Signed p ord^r M: Jenifer Cl: Lo: Ho.
