PUBLICATION. [heading]

By His Excellency Anthony Beaujon Esquire, Governor in and over the Colony of Essequebo and Demerary, and its Dependencies, President in all Courts and Colleges in the same. And, The Honble: Court of Policy of the said Colony, &c. &c. &c
Whereas We have taken into consideration that while the Committee appointed by the Proprietors of Lots on the front of the late La Bourgade Estate, called Cumingsburg, is employed in framing Regulations for the future management of affairs in the said Cumingsburg, and in nominating from amongst the other Proprietors, the Commissioners, who, after being approved of by us, are to superintend the execution of such Regulations, it is of the utmost urgency that a new Front-Dam should as soon as possible be made in the said Cumingsburg to prevent its being overflowed every succeeding Spring Tide.
We therefore in Order to make the necessary provision in the peculiar behalf, have judged proper to Appoint from amongst the Proprietors of Lots in Cumingsburg, three Commissioners, viz: Charles Clifton, John Jackson and Adam Smith Esquires, for the special purpose of causing such new Front-Dam to be Made; and that the said Commissioners may be enabled to provide the necessary Funds for the completion of that object, We have Authorised them to Levy a Tax or Contribution of One and an half per Cent on the Original Prices of each and every Lot of Land in the said Cumingsburg, and an equal rate of One and an half per cent on the Value of all Buildings erected on such Lots, according to the Appraisement to be made thereof by three Appraisers to be chosen by His Excellency the Governor, out of Six Persons to be returned to the Governor by the three special Commissioners before-named; which Tax or Contribution is to be appropriated to no other purpose than the Making of the New Front-Dam as aforesaid, and shall be Paid by all Persons subject to the same in three equal Installments at One, Two and Three Months from and after the date of the present Publication.
The three Commissioners before-named having been Ordered to Report their Proceedings and to render an account of the receipt and appropriation of the Monies so to be received by them, at Our next Ordinary Session.
And We do hereby require and enjoin all Persons whom it may concern, to take Notice hereof accordingly.
Thus resolved at Our Session held at the Court-House in Stabroek, this 29th of August 1804, and Published the 8th of September thereto next following.
Anthony Beaujon.
By Command of the court aforesaid,
P. F. Tinne, D: Secty.
