are limited to what we have ourselves seen. If there should be other valuable plans, not mentioned by Petitioners, they hope that your honour will adopt them. To preserve the good, the weeds must be uprooted; to remove the wicked is the way to give peace to the people. Petitioners humbly ask for the consideration and approval of these measures, and that a notification should be issued, notifying them in strong and urgent terms. In this way, bad characters will give up their evil ways and reform by becoming imbued with your virtue and transforming influence. Travellers and traders will dwell in peace and joyful possession of their property and will be grateful.

The above Petition and Suggestions have been perused and approved by those who are willing to join in presenting the petition. They sign their names or affix their seals as proof thereof. Here follow 1159 seals and 17 signatures.
