¹ Stoughton was discharged on May 18, 1747, after accepting the position of deputy naval officer of Pocomoke.

² Lee was discharged on June 20, 1746, after accepting the office of county clerk.

³ The members of all first convention Lower House standing committees were reappointed to continue in the first, sec-
ond, and third sessions. The only names relisted in those sessions were the members on the Committee of Bills of Cred-
it-Paper Currency. It is presumed that George Wilison and Nicholas Goldsborough, who were added to the Committee
of Aggrievances and Courts of Justice during the first session, were not included in the reappointments made in the
second and third session. No Upper or Lower House standing committees were mentioned, nor did any function during
the two-day second convention. The Upper House member on the Committee of Bills of Credit-Paper Currency was
named in all other sessions except the second.
