which ballance of £25..14..11 he transfers to the Debit of his next
Years Accounts against the Province but it does not appear that
the Above two Bills amounting to £87..18..8 were ever Credited by
the Trustees, yet by their Account of the next Year they Credited
the Province by John Hanbury on Said Naval Officers Account
£62..3..9, from which we apprehend the said Bills were not paid
and the said Naval Officer has ordered Mr Hanbury to pay the
Nett Sum due only on the Tobacco by the proceeding Account
exported by which the said Sum of £25..14..11 car red to Next
account against the Province shou'd have been again Credited and
not being so is Still due to the Province £25..14..11 And for
Ballance of his Account 1756 he charges his Order on William
Perkins in favour Messrs Hunt & Hanbury remitted £319..18..4, And
for the Balance of his Account 1757 his Exchange on Mr William
Perkins to be remitted to the Trustees by the first Ship £286..1..3
But your Comittee dont find that the Trustees have Credited the
Province with the said sums of £319..18..4 & £286..1..3 By which
your Committee is induced to believe the said Order and Bills were
not paid and that therefore the Ballance due from said Officer to the
Year 1757 is £631..14..6 as appears by the Above Account and Your
Committee takes leave further to report to the honble House that they
cannot find that the said Naval Officer has rendered any Accounts
for the 15d p hhd for the Year 1758, 1759, 1760 or that the Trus-
tees have Credited the Province with any moneys or Bills remitted
by the Said Officer for the Said last three Years, which Your Com-
mittee think a great Breach of Duty in that Officer and a great
Injury to the Province
Your Comittee cannot find that the Naval Officer of Pocomoke
District has rendered any Account for the i5d p hhd for the Year
1755 But that the Naval Officer of the said district has rendered
Accounts for the Years following to Wit,
