These words we conceive cannot be wrelied fe pa to Support the adertion of the Commons House of Aftjmbly; and ’ bn left It had appeared to us, that, ie any letters patent or ietradion* from hia Majesty, before or fioce the date of tbe proclamation, your Ex cetfency had power and dtrc&ion to HToc writs foretelling representatives fOf tbo land! added by that proclamation to this province, (which was not the case) their ebargp is gtoundfefs, and our opinion and advice mull be deemed proper and unexceptionable, nnd therefore cannot be impeached fey any impartial and unprejudiced men.

How far, therefore, such a charge can be fiipponed will appear from what we have before affined.

We hope your Excellency will cxcufe our troubling you with this ad. ! dress, which we beg leave to allure you it foltly owing to the publication of the last eddrefs presented to you by the Commons House of Aflembly.
