Gent.
We are very much Surprized to hear you tell his Honour
the Governour that you have nothing of business Lyes before
your House, when we but Just now sent down the Journall
of the Committee of Accounts to your House unassented to
by us for want of some Addition or Alteration to be made
therein Wee therefore take the Liberty to put you in mind that
altho your House and ours cannot Agree to make Allowances
to each other it is Absolutely necessary that all other Publick
Dues should be paid and for that End we propose to you
once more, that your Allowance and ours being taken out
of the Journall, we shall be willing to Assent to all the other
Allowances, by which means all the publick Debts will be
paid. If you refuse this, we hope the Blame will be Laid on
those who Deserve it and we shall be Excused.
