Gentlemen.
As the original Duty of the three pence p hhd contained in the
two Bills sent up by Your House was Given as a marke of Regard
from time to time to our Governors, either for the space of three
Years or during their Government Over us, And as his Lordship
of his Great goodness and Regard to the Instruction of the Youth of
this Province in Literature was pleased to direct one of his Gov-
ernors to give up to the use of Schools within this Province one
Moiety of the said three pence p hhd if raised We therefore as in
Duty bound, and in order to shew the deep sence We have of his
Lordships good Intentions as well as regard to His Excellency our
present Governor do insist that the three pence p hhd be raised by
one Law as heretofore and Continued as usuall for the space of three
Years or during the time of his Excellencys presiding Over us, and
therefore we recomend the preparing a bill for that purpose.
