thereto, This House are unanimously of opinion that it is
necessary a Bill be brought in Enjoyning the Severall Vestry
men and Church Wardens as a part of their office and within
the proviso of their Oath to represent the Misconduct of their
Clergy to the Governour & Councill But the preparing the
Bill and the Matter thereof is referr'd till next Sessions.
The following Report brought in from the Comittee of
Aggrievances Viz.
By the Comittee of Aggrievances March 23rd 1725
It is represented to this Comittee by Colo Ephraim Augt
Herrman as an Aggrievance that his Last Patent of Bohemia
Mannor Stands in the Record in an Expression of the Bounds
wherein the word head seems to be placed Over the word Run
As if it was intended to be taken instead of the Word Run
And also that on the said originall patent the word Head
seems to have been put in the same place instead of some
other word rased out, And Also that in an other Patent of a
Prior date in the same Year the word Run is in the same
place and for that no Cause of such alteration appears to us
and also for that the said Herrman cannot fix the said Rasure
or Alteracon in any person so as to have a Tryall at Law there-
upon without which or the aid of an Act of Assembly the
said Herman conceives the said Record cannot be rectified;
All which your Comittee Referrs as worthy the Considera-
con of the house and humbly propose if the House concurrs
therewith that notice may be given to the persons interested
therein or that hold Lands Contiguous to the said Bohemia
Mannor that if they think fitt they may appear next Sessions
and be heard in opposition to the said Herrmans Prayer; all
which is Referr'd to the Consideracon of the House
Sign'd p order. Sam Hepburn Cl Com.
Which is read and referrd till next Sessions And Ordered
that Notice be given pursuant thereto
Philip Lee Esqr from the Upper House delivers Mr
Speaker the paper Bills Viz.
A Bill for Limitation of Officers ffees And a Bill to restrain
the Ill practices of Attorneys Severally thus Endorst Viz.
