    The clerk of the senate delivers the following resolution:
By the SENATE, December 29, 1796.
    Whereas Dyre Betton, late surveyor of Queen-Anne's county, heretofore surveyed and laid off
the manor in said county into lots, under the direction of the commissioners of confiscated estates,
and returned certificates of each lot sold to the land-office of the western shore, several of which certificates,
upon examination, were found to be erroneous, and the said Dyre Betton afterwards died,
without having corrected the said certificates:  And whereas Robert Seney, afterwards surveyor
of the said county, appointed John Brown Hackett, one of the deputy surveyors of said county, to
resurvey the said lots, and correct the said certificates, who began the work, and before the same
was completed, the said Robert Seney also died, and the aforesaid John Brown Hackett cannot
now, under the laws of this state, complete the business; wherefore, and to prevent the unnecessary
expence of an entire new survey by the present surveyor of the county, RESOLVED, That the
said John Brown Hackett be and he is hereby authorised and empowered to complete the said resurveys
within six months from the passage of this resolve, and to make out and sign plots and special
certificates thereof, stating the circumstances of the case, with an affidavit of the truth thereof annexed
or endorsed; and the said certificates shall be as good and effectual as if made out and signed by
the surveyor of the county; and if any amendments or corrections of the said plots or certificates
shall be necessary, such amendments or corrections shall be made by the said John Brown Hackett,
or such other person as the chancellor, or the judge of the land-office on the eastern shore, as the case
may be, shall think proper.
                                                            By order,                                        A.  VAN-HORN, clk.
Which was read the first time and ordered to lie on the table.

    RESOLVED, That George Salmon, president of the bank of Baltimore, on or before the 20th
day of January next, subscribe, on behalf of this state, two hundred and twenty shares to the said
bank, and that thirty-three thousand dollars be paid by the treasurer of the western shore to the order
of the president and directors of said bank in three payments, one third in thirty days from the
time of subscription, one third in sixty days, and the remaining third in ninety days, and that the
other one half or moiety of the money that will be due for the said shares be paid to the said president
and directors on or before the 27th December, 1797.
