The Government however, having only paid £4,600, they say £1224 is still expected. Now this claim is, I think, fairly met by a claim arising from the fact, for the first time disclosed in these Papers, that the sittings required in the Church for the Government Servants, the Military & the Public, amount to 718, or 78 more than the whole Church can hold.

They have in fact given more than they promised to do, seem entitled to some relief which may perhaps be best given by sanctioning the Ordinance the Governor proposes to sue for the payment of a debt of £416 due.
