586 Assembly Proceedings, Dec. 12-24, 1754.

U. H. J.
Liber No. 34
December 24

Which his Excellency passed into a Law in the usual form by
Sealing it with the Right honourable the Lord Proprietary his Great
Seal at Arms and Subscribing it on behalf of the Right honourable
the Lord Proprietary of this Province I will this be a Law
After which his Excellency was pleased to conclude this Session
with the following Speech

Gentlemen of the Upper & Lower houses of Assembly.
As I want words to Express, I must leave it to you to imagine,
how Great must be my Surprize & Concern at being requested to
put an End to this Session, before you have in the least Degree Satis-
fied the Expectations that your Several Addresses presented Soon
after the opening thereof, had raised in me, and I presume, in every
one who might have had an opportunity of Seeing them: However
as I am unwilling to detain you a Moment against your Inclinations
I have thought fit with the Advice of his Lordships Council of State
to Prorogue to the 15.th day of January next Hoping that in that time
you will endeavour to convince your Constituents of the Necessity of
their Permitting you to Contribute without any further Hesitation to
prevent the Success of the fatal Scheme which our Common Enemy is
now Preparing to put in Execution; Wherefore you are to take Notice
you are Prorogued to the said 15th day of January next accordingly.
Thus Ends this Session of Assembly begun & held at the City of
Annapolis on Thursday the 12th day of December and Ending on
Tuesday the 24th day of the same Month in the 20th year of his Majes-
tys Reign and in the 4th year of his Lordships Dominion Annoq
Domini 1754
