Resolved Unanimously, _ • '
That this Meeting will colleaively and individually lead
their utmost assistance in carrying into execution the said Ad
of the 38th of the present King, and the measures that shall
be direded by His Majcaty for the Deteuce and Security of
the Kingdom against Foreign and Domestic Enemies.
That although the landing of an Enemy on the Coasts of
this Country may bedifticult, yet this Meeting considers it
-an arise to rely too much upon the 'natural defence of their
Shores, or to abate in the necessarypreparations to prevent,
and ertions to resist, every attempt that. may be made to
invade this Country.
e That some part of the County which adjoins the Sea pro-a
dicing very great quantities of Corn and Grain, itais very fit
ti"devise meats to secure them trona being. applied to the..
itsaZp' use. But this Nleeting conceiving that (if even pus-
remil would be attended ,with the greatest difficulties to
powe/r. Grain in the straw, and as they do not know any
their Cthe9 have
. habitants to thresh out com rite th
Ti r'rlt, they can cniy pel suagest as the best precah ion,
(') t' of the event of an Enemy landing, the Mills and
Dv should be rendefed for a time unserviceable, in a roan-
,an-
• • least hijurious to the owners.; and ,this. it is conceived
""ay be done by breaking the Upper Mill Stones in the Mills,
and
„ the Roof of the Ovens, unitaing . compensation to the
Owners in the manner directed by the Act: -
That on the first approach' of an Enemy, as it might create
torlfu-' it; and be unnecessary to remove Cows or Cattle
ltorn any part of the County' above ten or twelve miles from .
tie Sea; and as within tmat District ;toe 'same being fermtil
into several Diviaiona) such removal might be, as a tempo-
Cary expedient, ellttect by the General of the District making
his requ:sition to a Deputy Lieutenant living in each Division ;
I t tiierz':Ore is the opinion of thts.Meeting, that it, would
-hel advisable for such General Offcer to natne. plates as
,Ine.i.ts within such distance to which trtc•Cattle may; in case
s'aalarin, removed at his requisition.
