And delivers the following Message viz.

By the Upper House of Assembly

Novem^r the 2^d 1725
Gentlemen.
The Reason you give for the Reasonableness of the allow-
ance of 150^l Tob^o p Day for the Attendance of the Private
Councell under the Crown viz: That the whole Revenue for
Support of Government was otherwise applyed does still
Evidently Subsist, for we have no Possibility of Coming at
any part of the money Raised for Support of Government,
therefore it is Reasonable some other Provision should be
Made for us. The Message You are pleas'd to Refer us to of
the 25^th Octo^r 1723 in Your (not our) printed proceedings

no ways Convinces us of the unjustness of our Claime, but

Rather than delay the Publick business at this time by Con-
tending (tho for an Equitable Right) with an Obstinate
People, we shall Refer further debates thereon to another
Opportunity.
