In Council June 2d. 1788

By a transcript from the Records of the Court of Charles County,
it appears that Thomas Dehany was at the last April term of the said
Court fined in the sum of Twenty pounds Current Money on the non
payment of which he was committed to the Custody of the Sheriff.
And by a paper accompanying the said transcript it appears that he
now remains in the Goal of the said County and that the Sheriff and
Clerk have relinquished their fees on Account of the Man's poverty.
And Whereas three Magistrates of the said County certify that the
said Dehany is unable to pay the said fine or any part thereof, and
do recommend a Remission of the same, the Board on Considera-
tion of his inability, do order and direct that the said fine of Twenty
pounds be and it is hereby remitted.
