James Bowles Escf from the Upp^r House Delivers M^r
Speaker the Supplementary Bill to the Act for Repareing the
publick records thus endorst, Viz.

By the Upper House of Assembly October the 30^th 1722

The Commissioners being impowered by the former Law
to agree w^th proper persons to repair the records in Tobacco
only and the price of Tobacco being Uncertaine and the place
of payment precarious no one would agree with them for that
Comodity but at extravagant rates, which is the true reason
that the records are not yet repaired. Therefore we propose

L.H.J.

to your House that a Clause be Added in the Bill empowering
the Commissioners to agree with Proper Persons either in
Money or Tobacco with which Addition the Bill will pass.
Signed p Order. Sam^l Skippon Cl. Up. Ho.

Thereupon the Bill is comitted for Amendment which is
Accordingly Amended and past for Engrossing.
