he attended agreeably to the tenor of his said Recognizance but his
Adversary did not appear to prosecute, that at August Court follow-
ing his family being very Sickly and himself not very well he was un-
able to attend whereby his Recognizance became forfeited, that he at-
tended at November Court and was fined three pounds which he paid
and thought the matter entirely settled 'till lately the Sheriff called on
him for ten pounds the forfeiture of his Recognizance; he therefore
prays a Remission of the said forfeiture, And three of the Justices
of the said County having certified the truth of the facts set forth
by the said Petitioner, The Board upon Consideration of all the
