350 Assembly Proceedings, Sept. 26-0ct. 15, 1760.

U. H. J.
Liber No. 35
Oct. 14

before a single Justice of the Peace, and will not pass, & Sent by
Richard Lee Esq^r

[Editor's Note: The journal for this session of the Upper House
as recorded in the original official manuscript liber ends abruptly at
this point in the midst of the proceedings for October 14th, the day
preceding the last day of the session. As indicated by the continuous
pagination of the official liber and by the fact that the last entry ends
abruptly on the third line of page 457, with the remainder of this
page blank, the omission is unquestionably contemporary and not due
to a later mutilation of the liber. It seems probable that the Clerk of
the Upper House lost his rough notes of the proceedings and did not
dare enter them from memory when, at a later date, he made the
official copy from his rough notes. Fortunately, the hiatus covering
the last day and a half of the session is in large part supplied by the
journal of the Lower House.]
