Secondly, by an agreement with the Guinea Company to furnish 200
negroes, who are generally persons that do a great deal of work; and
all these are subsisted very reasonably out of a public storehouse.

Thirdly, by carts and horses to be bought, not hired, with a few
able carters; and to the other a few workmen that have judgment to
direct the rest, and thus I question not the great causeway shall be
done for four shillings per foot charge; but of this by-the-bye.

Fourthly, a liberty to ask charities and benevolences to the work.

3. To the question, HOW THIS MONEY SHALL BE RAISED. I think if the
Parliament settle the tax on the county for eight years at 30,000
pounds per annum, no man need ask how it shall be raised . . . It
will be easy enough to raise the money; and no parish can grudge to
pay a little larger rate for such a term, on condition never to be
taxed for the highways any more.

Eight years' assessment at 30,000 pounds per annum is enough to
afford to borrow the money by way of anticipation, if need be; the
fund being secured by Parliament, and appropriated to that use and
no other.

Parliament to the bank and undertakers, upon condition of
performance, and to be forfeit to the use of the several parishes to
which they belong, in case upon presentation by the grand juries,
