Full Description:
Germain. Circular to Clinton. Whitehall. Sending copies of Acts passed through Parliament. Postscript discusses how Commissioners sent out from Britain have powers to suspend in any places, or for any times, during the continuance of the bill under which they are appointed, the operation and effects of any Act or Acts of Parliament which have passed since the 10 February 1763. It has been taken into consideration the Tea Act and the Acts for the better regulating of Massachusets Bay which you will find enclosed. Hoping this affection to the wishes of many people may have the desired effect of 'enclining' those who have been 'unhappily engaged' in the present rebellion to return to their alllegiance.
