Whereas, It is represented to this -General Assem-
bly by the petition of James Brown and James But-
cher, that judgments have been obtained in Queen
Anne's county court at the last October term, by the
levy court of said county against James Hall and
Anna Hackett, surviving executrix of James Hackett,
as securities of John B. Hackett, late collector of the
taxes of said county for the year eighteen hundred and
one, and also against James Brown and Elizabeth De-
vorix, administratrix of William H. Devorix, as secu-
rities of Richard E. Harrison, late collector of taxes
for said county, for the years eighteen hundred and
two and eighteen hundred and three respectively;
and it appears that part of the sum of money for which
said judgments have been rendered is claimed to be
due on account of monies levied for keeping in repair
the public roads in said county for the years aforesaid;
and it appearing doubtful whether the whole of said
sums of money are justly due: -— Therefore,
Resolved, That the aforesaid James Hall, Anna
Hackett, James Brown, Elizabeth Devorix and Ro-
bert Carson be, and they are hereby exonerated and
discharged from the payment of such part of the said
judgments respectively, as arise upon money stated to
be due for levies for the repair of any roads, where they
shall make it appear to the levy court of said county,
by sufficient testimony, that any work had been done
upon said road, by the supervisor for the same, during
the year which said money was to have been applied.
Resolved, That all proceedings against the parties,
or either of them on said judgments, be stayed until
the first day of June next.
