Gent" The Office of Register of Wills for Ann Arundel County,
became vacant in the Recess of the General Assembly, by the Death
of Mr Vallette, and, according to the Form of Government, with
the Advice of the Council, I appointed and commissioned Mr Thos.
Gassaway to hold that Office, untill the Meeting of the General
Assembly.
[Council to Charles Blake Esqr.]

Sir Yours of the 28th Ulto we have received. As the Price of
Wheat is raised, we suppose you will not be able to purchase below
the Market Price, but we wish you to be cautious and not let the
Purchase of a few Bushels influence your Conduct. We have
transmitted to you by Majr Gale 25o£ of the late Emission of this
State, it being the only Kind of Money we can command. Mr Hems-
ley has sold us 21 Head of Cattle, six of which he is to have
Slaughtered and barrelled; the Residue is to be delivered to you,
which we request may be forwarded to the Head of Elk with those
you purchase.
