John Rousby Esq^r from the upper House Delivers M^r
Speaker the Bill for the relief of ffrancis Gandevit and John
Read thus Endorst Viz :

By the Upper House of Assembly. 8^ber the 16^th 1722

We conceive that to give Gandevit and Read an Absolute
Estate of Inheritance in fee Simple in the Lands menconed
in this Bill would be to Cut off Birmingham from any Claim
or Title in the s^d Lands which (by what it Appears to us)

L. H. J.

he has never yet Legally made Over to any person w'soever,
and not only so but would alsoe Cut off any Claim or Title
from any other Person who might have a Right previous
to s^d Birmingham but it appearing by Birminghams Certifi-
cate Sealed with the Scale of New Castle that he is Willing
to Acknowledge and make over the s^d Lands to the said
Gandevit and Read upon their Procuring An Act of Assembly
for having the said Lands in Satisfaccon for their Debt
and also upon their Giving him the said Birmingham good
Security to indemnifie him the said Birmingham his Heires
&c: from said Riddlesden, we are of opinion that the intent
of the Petitioners in Desiring an Act of Assembly in their
favour is only that wee should make good the Deficiencies
in Riddlesdens Deed of Conveyance for want of due Ac-
knowledgement and give them as full right and Title in the
s^d Lands as Riddlesden himself had or they should have had,
had the said deed been duely Executed.
The Bill being altered according to these sentiments (as
above Exprest) will pass.
