The following Message is sent by Philip Lee Esqr

By the Upper House of Assembly 9 April 1730
Gentlemen
However unwilling this house may be in their Inclinations to lay
any Imputations of Irregularity on the Proceedings of your House;
or to suppose you capable of acting in a Manner inconsistent with
the good Understanding which ought to subsist between the two
houses; yet with Regrett We find by your Message of this Day by
Mrs King and Stoughton that you do not think it Want of Charity
to tax us with making an irregular Request in Our Message of
yesterday by Edmund Jenings Esqr and in Our Message of this
Morning by George Plater Esqr and the Reason you assign for
incomplyance seems as extraordinary as that Refusal; We desire
to know whether you agreed to Our Amendments, you refuse to
satisfy us in that point, lest We should hereafter ask Reasons for
your Incomplyance: We ask only the first, and if We had desired
the last, the Proceeding would have been very parliamentary
The Reason of sending our former Messages was, because We
did not see that Bill sent to Our house amongst the Engrossed Bills,
but We are convinced that if your House had agreed to the Amend-
ments proposed by this house, No parliamentary usage can justify
the not sending the Engrossed Bill; unless you will say it is regular
to keep a bill which has received the Assent of both houses; And lest
you should really think there is such a Right in Either house we
have not sent down the Two Engrossed Bills the One Entituled an
Act reviving & Continuing an Act of Assembly of this Province
Entituled an Act for the speedy Recovery of small Debts out of
Court before a single Justice of the Peace and the Other Entituled

p. 69

a supplementary Act to the Act Entituled an Act for the Tryal of
all Matters of fact in the Counties where they have arisen or shall
arise the Continuance of Causes in the Provincial Court and Ad-
journment of that Court, and for continuing the same; because you
may (agreeable to your own Expressions) reasonably presume it
is the Opinion of this house that those Bills should not be passed into
