planters, met at Smithtield Monday
Colonel ]. w. Holloway, of Smithfeld,
was made chairman. and Hon. w. e.
Howle, of Fergusson's Wharf, was
elected secretary.
The merits of the bill now before the
General Assembly to rearrange in a
manner the lines of the Baylor Survey
were discussed fully Addresses were
made by Captain Moss Martin, Captain
Carter, Hon. w. Il. Howle and others.
The sentiment was expressed that such
a change would prove disastrous to the
oyster business of the whole of Tide
water Virginia. The speakers argued
that it will mean eventually tho pass
ing of a large area of oyster grounds
into the possession of large planters
and will tend to drive the tongers and
small planters out of business.
Resolutions were adopted earnestly
protesting against the passage of the
bill or any other measure which will
tend in any manner to break the Baylor
Survey. The tongers expressed their
if the State needs the
funds to advance the tonGer's license
from 5000 TO $500, believing that the
increased revenue by that means will
pay the State more money than would
be derived from the proposed change.
