Instructions to Sam^l Ogle Esq^re our Lieuten' Governor & Chancellor.
Whereas an Address has been to me by the Upper & Lower House
of Assembly, that a sum of mony may be raised in lieu of my Quit
Rents & Alienation Fines, you are directed to proceed as follows :
I^st You shall consider what Equivalent the Legislature of Mary-
land can give instead of my Alienation Fines & Quit-Rents.
2^d You must take care th' such Equivalent tend not to Burthen the
Trade of his Majesty's Subjects trading to Maryland.
3^d You shall not give y^r consent to any Bill for the same Equiva-
lent, but first send the Draught of the Bill over to me, & take my
directions therein
