38            VOTES and PROCEEDINGS, November Session, 1800.

By the SENATE, December 16, 1800.

        GENTLEMEN,
    WE have declined to reconsider the bill, entitled, A supplement to the act for the promotion of literature in
this state, as no reason has been offered us for changing any part of the trustees in the original bill.  We send
you a bill to incorporate the said trustees, with power to fill up vacancies, and likewise to divide the donation,
if they shall be of opinion that it is sufficient to maintain two academies, or if the said division would conduce
more to the promotion of literature in both counties.
                                                            By order,                                                    W. S.  GREEN, clk.
