Land Tax Bill.

Hodie 3a vice lecta est Billa, intituled, "An Act for granting an Aid to Her Majesty, to be raised by a Land Tax in Great Britain, for the Service of the Year One Thousand Seven Hundred and Eleven."

The Question was put, "Whether this Bill shall pass?"

It was Resolved in the Affirmative.

Message to H. C. that the Lords agree to it.

A Message was sent to the House of Commons, by Mr. Meller and Mr. Orlebar:

To acquaint them, that the Lords have agreed to the said Bill, without any Amendment.

The House was adjourned during Pleasure, to robe.

The House was resumed.

Queen present:

Her Majesty, being seated on Her Royal Throne, adorned with Her Crown and Regal Ornaments, attended with Her Officers of State (the Peers being in their Robes); commanded the Deputy Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod to let the Commons know, "It is Her Majesty's Pleasure, that they attend Her immediately, in the House of Peers."

Who being come, with their Speaker; he, after a short Speech to Her Majesty, delivered the Land Tax Bill to the Clerk of the Parliaments, who brought it to the Table; where the Clerk of the Crown read the Title of that and the other Bill to be passed; (videlicet,)

Bills passed.

1. "An Act for granting an Aid to Her Majesty, to be raised by a Land Tax in Great Britain, for the Service of the Year One Thousand Seven Hundred and Eleven."

To this Bill the Clerk of the Parliaments pronounced the Royal Assent, in these Words; (videlicet,)

"La Reyne remercie ses bon Subjects, accepte leur Benevolence, et ainsi le veult."

2. "An Act to oblige Ships, coming from Places infected, more effectually to perform their Quarentine."

To this Bill the Clerk of the Parliaments pronounced the Royal Assent, in these Words; (videlicet,)

"La Reyne le veult."

Then Her Majesty was pleased to withdraw; and the Commons returned to their House.

Adjourn.
