Samuel Young late Treasurer of the Western Shore are so compli-
cated viz. the Sterling with the Current Duties and the different
Exchanges currency for Sterling that it will take a great deal of
time and deliberation more than can be conveniently spared in As-
sembly time to state the several Sums Annually Raised for the Uses
