No. 5.
WHEREAS by an act entitled, An act relating to the
governor

DEC. SESS.
1813.
Passed Jan. 18, 1814. |
THEREFORE RESOLVED, That the treasurer of the western
shore
pay out of any unappropriated money in the treasury to his excellency
the governor, the members of the council, the clerk and messenger
to the council, for their services during the month abovementioned,
the one twelfth part of the annual salaries which by the

In favour of the
governor and
council, &c. |
No. 6.
WHEREAS it is represented to this general assembly,
by the petition
of George Gale of Cecil county, that the resolution which
passed in his behalf at November session eighteen hundred, erroneously
stated the date of a deed therein mentioned from a certain
John Ryan to said Gale, to be the 1st of December 1795 instead
of the 31st of December 1795, and which deed conveyed a part of
a tract of land called New Connaught Manor, whereby the said
Gal cannot derive a benefit intended to have been extended to him;
therefore, |
Passed Jan. 25, 1814. |
RESOLVED, That the chancellor be, and he is hereby
authorised
to issue or cause to be issued, a patent for a part of New Connaught
Manor lying in Cecil county, to and in favour of George Gale of
Cecil county, in the manner and on the terms provided by the said
resolution, without requiring a new survey to be made of said land,
and as if the deed from John Ryan to said Gale had been truly recited
in the resolution aforesaid. |
In favour of Geo.
Gale. |
No. 8.
RESOLVED, That Benjamin Harwood trustee of the state
be, and
he is hereby authorised and directed to transfer the thirty thousand
dollars of the six per cent. stock of the United States, (meant and
intended to be loaned by the resolution of the general assembly of
Maryland, passed the 1st of December 1812,) to the president and
directors of the Potomac Company, upon their pledging the funds
of the said company, and giving the bond of the said corporate
body for the reimbursement of the principal in stock of the like
nature, with that loaned by instalments of three, four and five
years, with interest from the date of the transfer upon the whole
amount of principal remaining unpaid, such interest to be paid annually,
and in money of the United States. |
Passed Jan. 27, 1814.
In favour of the
president and directors
of the Potomac
Company. |
No. 16.
WHEREAS it is highly probable the militia of this
state will be
called into actual service the next summer for the purpose of repelling
the attacks of the enemy; should this be the case considerable
expense will necessarily be incurred, and although only a
part of the loan authorised by the resolution of May session last
has yet been negotiated and appropriated, yet as it is very possible
that the balance will not be sufficient to meet the expenditure which
the employment of the militia during the next year may occasion,
therefore to prevent the necessity of an extra session of the legislature. |
Passed Jan. 31, 1814. |
