| Preamble. |
WHEREAS it is represented to this general assembly,
by the petition
of a respectable number of the inhabitants of Anne-Arundel and
Prince-George's counties, that a road is much wanted from the
neighbourhood of Richard Dorsey, of Caleb, on the north side of
South river, in Anne-Arundel county, to intersect the public road
leading from the plantation of Benjamin Ogle, in Prince-George's
county, to Bladensburgh, and have prayed that a law may pass authorising

on the south of the main road leading from the city of Annapolis
round the head of South river, at the lower end of the said Richard
Dorsey's plantation, from thence, by Jacob Waters's mill and
the South river meeting-house, to the fording place on Patuxent,

over the Patuxent at Ashton's Ford aforesaid; and it appearing to
this general assembly that opening a road aforesaid would be of
great public utility, therefore, |

tree aforesaid, running the same by Jacob Waters's mill and South

Ford, and thence to intersect the road leading from the plantation
of Benjamin Ogle to Bladensburgh; and the said commissioners
