memory of their principles.

them respectively made, and pay the same to Philip Richard Fendall, Esquire, Treasurer,
to be applied by the committee of this County to the purpose mentioned in the tenth
resolve of the last Provincial Convention.

such additional subscriptions for the relief of the brave sufferers in that distressed Town,
