• " Notwithstanding the lenity shewn to thCse
concerned in a former attempt to create.confusion
in this colonv,.yet it appears that several restless
arid turbulent .chafttaers are still forming designs
to promote their diabolical schemes, for the destruc-
,..tiorc
.industry, public and private propefty,
..-„orqer and regularity ; and to introduce . murder,
pitinder; and•every kind of horror and Confusion ;

: ,se vet a 1 worthless vagrants have gone to the Woods,
subsisting by depredations on the Industrious,
,whilst many oalers are not only plundering those
to whOm their• labour is assigried, but are; also

property to be destroyed by the idle -and dissolute,
who from; their former habits, manifest a prefeience
of the life of indolence, plunder and alarm, to,' the
certain benefits of a commendable and tionesOn.,
dustry.

• " 'The Governor, considering it a duty he owes,
to his situation, and the security of the persons and
property, 'of the numerous loyal and well-dispoSed
inhabitants:.does hereby assure the turbulent part. of
the. inhabitants, tha t-none of their despicable plans
or daring anonymous writings, similar to that fir-
Warded to him previous to the exec4tiop <of the
Pirates, will ever.bias or slacken- hiS exertions in

" Dispo§ed as the Governor has. been, not- to
credit. any information' he has received, yet .the
many corroborating . evidences that have .bee
tiven, compels him to take the necessary measures
tor-securing the Peace of the, Colony'. 'Atixious to
';.helieve, that those evil designs , are only in the
frenzy of a few turbulent wretches, whose aim is'
colusion, be, is willing to hope, that when .the
. different 'descriptions of persons in thii Colony,

ous of their coinfott, who, irr the end, do not fail
to sacrifice those they' have employed to obtain their
fl.(1s; of which the two criminals, now under sem.tense .
of, death, and who were deserted by their art-

ful companions, is a sufficient proof how little con-,
' lidencethey can place in each other.
" Should
.this intention and hope of the Go-
vernor's be frustrated by, any renewal, of which he
hopes to hear no more about, he will then consider
it his duty to adopt such measures as are most likely
to insure that tranquillity which must not, and shall
not be interrupted with impunity.
