Your Committee find that by a Report in November Session,
1765, it appears that the Sum of £.73: 17:2 Current Money was
then due from the Collector of the Land Tax, for Queen-Anne's
County, for the Half Year ending the 29th of September, 1763,
and that the said Sum hath not yet been paid in.
Your Committee further report, That the House wherein the
Commissioners for emitting Bills of Credit keep their Office is in
such a ruinous State, that they are for the present under the Necessity
of having it propped up, as the Walls are much cracked, which your
Committee apprehend is owing to the great Weight of a Brick
