Court of Proprietors Discuss Pensions and Bye Laws
The General Court of Proprietors at East India House read a dividend for the last half year and appointed a committee to review the bye laws. It approved a pension of 3004 per annum to the Baymaster of the Chatham depot and warned against rising salaries. The report from the bye laws committee was laid before the court and ordered printed for consideration on July 34. The meeting debated a parliamentary bill on shipping rights and criticized the House of Commons committee for selective evidence. A motion to oppose the bill was defeated two votes to none, and the session adjourned to July 8.
