Your Committee remark, that although from the above statement
there appears’to be’ a deficiency of 17K id. 3-4 for the year
1783, the payments made by John Elliot, the Collector, were conli
dered by the then Treasurer in full of hit collection for that year,
and therefore leave to the consideration of the 1 House the propriety
of giving hint a difeharge. ,
For 1785 and 1786, the Collectors appear to have performed the
duties required of them with punctuality, and ought to be difeharg
ed ; but recommend, tbat the Executive be empowered to take or
der thereon.
For 1787 there appears to be a deficiency of il. us. id. 1-2,
f»r which sum, and any monies received of defaulters, the Collector
(lands accountable.
