A Supplementary ACT to the act, entitled, An act for the relief of
the poor
within the several counties therein mentioned.
The money arising in Frederick county,
from the 15lb. of tobacco per poll, assessed in 1768 and 1769,
having been more than adequate to the purpose, the trustees are directed,
after deducting the price of the
land, and the cost of the buildings, and of all kinds of necessaries, to
apply the balance to the same uses as
they are directed to apply the tobacco to be levied in 1771. And
the court is not, in 1770 and 1771, to
levy more than 10lb. per poll, nor even that, but upon application of the
trustees, who are to receive and
apply it to the same uses as they are directed by the act of 1768, ch.
29, to apply the tobacco to be assessed
