Dudley, of Wilmington, for the purpose
of having it secured. On examination
it was found that the Vess»>l contain
ing the Machine was so much decayed
as to be unfit for use; that the machine it
self was greaily injured ; and that it would
coHt the State a considerable sum of mo
ney to have it taken to pieces and stored in
safety. In the opinion of many persons,
the cest would be more than the Machme
was worth. Under the-« circumstances, I
have directed it to be delivered to the Caf>e
Fear Navigation Company, in which tlie
Slate IS much interestei; and the Agent
has engaged that it shall be taken care of.
The Resolution directing the appoint
ment of some “ intelligent person to act on

“ vacating certain grants made by this

loss how to proceed. No claim has b«.en
made for the money, nor do I know where

rected by the Resr>lution, inasmuch, as in
my absence, there wa, no p raon aiithornnfd
to receive and pay away the money appro
priated for the said four Sharf^s. I have
therefore lelt the Shares as they were, and
have dtpofcited in the State Bank, the mo
ney placed in ray hands as fraurdian, cjt
cjjirio^ of Jaui^s N. Forsythe, amounting
lo €1174 ijO. This money is subject to the
