On motion, Ordered that the following Message be sent to the Assembly to wit
Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Assembly,
Your Message proposing to allow Interest, to Charles Cogdell for the sum of
£1199.9 due to him from the Public, being highly just, is very agreable to us,
and we are unanimously of Opinion that the same regard to Justice and the
publick Faith, ought to induce the Legislature, to allow Interest to every
other Creditor of the Public, and particularly to Colo1 Hugh Waddell, Major
Bailey and Mr. Walter Lindsay which Honble procedure would in the end, be
truly a saving to the Province as it would encourage good Servants to behave
well and to serve on the lowest terms.
In the Upper House of Assembly
