influence upon his Majesty's revenue or the trade
of the kingdom." (b) Said letter of Blathwayt

formerly given to the Governor of Bermudas by
the late Company of those Islands, viz. as to whether
same be fit to be continued at this time. (c) Copy

the duty on tobacco. You are to propose to the
Assembly that the duty of 1d. per lb. be settled on
all tobacco, but so as we may lessen the duty to
what proportion we shall think fit from time to time
as the affairs of the government of the Islands
shall require: and that no person be permitted to
lade any tobacco on any ship or vessel before
security given for the payment of our Customs and
duties. [You are also to propose] the passing of
fitting laws for the making of good, sound and
merchantable tobacco for preventing the mischief
which will otherwise ruin the trade of the islands. |
