you from any demand on account of that service; for which in the former of the two preceding years you voted a sum exceeding three, and in the latter one exceeding four thousand pounds.
Honourable Gentlemen and Gentlemen: When returned to your respective districts let it be your care to promote in them a spirit of concord, and that generous obedience to the laws which is always essential to the happiness of a people. It shall be mine to protest the rights of His Majesty's subjects; to suppress the efforts of the seditious, and with diligence to aid the growing welfare of the Province.
The Honourable Speaker of the Legislative Council then said: It is His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor's will and pleasure that this Provincial Parliament be prorogued to the twentieth day of August next, to be then and there holden; and this Provincial Parliament is prorogued accordingly.
