that by the Act for the Two Millions [9 Wm. III, c. 44] it is provided
that if the Treasury Lords think fit they may direct the taking of
such Bank Bills as above from 1698 July 10 until the end of the
next session of Parliament and no longer: and the said Lords
judge it at this time safe and expedient that they be so taken.

Report to the Treasury Lords by William Blaithwait, Auditor
General of the Plantations, on the petition of William Bird relating
to the balance of his father's Virginia revenue accounts ut supra
pp. 123–4. Hereupon Blathwayt reports that besides the revenue of
2s. upon every hogshead of tobacco exported fron Virginia [which
Duty is] received upon the place and appropriated to the Government of that colony there is a revenue arising to his Majesty by
quit rents for every acre of land granted by the Crown within the
Southern part of that Colony, the quit rents of the Northernmost
parts being at present vested in the Rt. Honble. Lord Fairfax as
executor of the late Lord Colpeper who with others was possessed of
the quit rents of the whole Colony until the year 1684, when his
Lordship in consideration of the sum of 600l. per an. to be paid to
him and his assigns upon [or out of] the Establishment of the Forces
in England for the term of 21½ years, and of 700l. in ready money,
did assign to Charles II the quit rents of the Southern part of
Virginia. The said King Charles II was then pleased to declare
his intention by letter under the royal sign manual and signet to the
Governor of Virginia dated 25 July 1684 that the quit thereof [of
the said Southern part] arising to his Majesty should be applied
towards the support of the Government of that Colony in such
manner as his Majesty should from time to time direct and appoint;
and to order that the said quit rents should not be disposed of until
upon certifying the value of what should then remain in the
[Virginian] Treasury his Majesty should order the same to be disposed
of to such uses as should be thought requisite. |
|
[Since that time] orders have accordingly been issued by the
Treasury Lords under the King's sign manual for the payment of
moneys out of the revenue of quit rents, in particular 1695 May 1
when his present Majesty directed 765l. 3s. 9½d. to be paid out of
his said revenue of quit rents as an aid to the revenue of 2s. per
hogshead then falling short [by] the sum of 837l. 9s. 9d. by reason
of the war, the assisting of New York and the new charge of a sloop
ordered by his Majesty to be kept against illegal traders and more
especially the want of shipping to bring away the tobacco. |
|
Since that time it appears by the accompts of the revenue of 2s.
per hogshead upon tobacco and Port Duties within that Colony for
the years 1695, 1696 and 1697 that that revenue has produced
7,683l. 13s. 1¾d. in the said three years: out of which the following
disbursements have been made within the same time viz. |

which being more than the produce of the said revenue in the
said three years (being 7683l. 13s. 1¾d.) by the sum of 2955l. 9s. 8½d.
this balance would be wanting to clear the debts of the Government
in Virginia out of the said revenue of 2s. per hogshead: which
deficiency this petitioner's father [Byrd] (through whose hands his
Majesty's revenue in Virginia does pass) has made good by advances as
occasion required for the public service of that Government according
to the several vouchers transmitted by him. And it likewise appears
by the accompt of the quit rents that on the 31 May 1697 there
was remaining in the Treasury there the sum of 3333l. 9s. 6½d. |
|
The petitioner therefore does in his father's behalf pray that
according to his Majesty's former pleasure his Majesty would now
graciously order the said debt of 2955l. 9s. 8½d. due upon the balance
of his father's account of the 2s. per hogshead to be made good out
of the said 3333l. 9s. 6½d. remaining in bank of the quit rents as
aforesaid; the occasion of doing the same for the future being not
likely to happen during the present peace and freedom of trade
which will probably increase the revenue of 2s. per hogshead so as to
[enable it to] answer alone the necessary charge of the Government
there. Out Letters (Plantations Auditor) II., pp. 12–14. |
