Excerpt from The Statutes at Large of South Carolina, Vol. 10: Containing the General Index; Also a List of All the Acts of Assembly After the printing of the 9th volume, and so much of the General Index as relates to Banks, where it is stated that the Bank Act of1712, could not be found, Edmund Bellenger, Jr. Esq., had the kindness to com municate to me where a copy of that Act could be procured, in the Library of the Legislature of this State, in a M. S. Copy of the Temporary Laws of the State. 1 am, also, further indebted to Mr. Bellenger for An account of the rise and progress of the Paper Bills of Credit in South Caroa lina, from the year &c. By whom it was drawn up I cannot say, but as it is found in indian book, No. A M. S. Volume in the Li brary of the Legislature, belonging, I presume, to the Secretary of State's office, I cannot doubt but that it is an o icial document, prepared by pub. Lic authority in 1739. I should not think that I had performed my duty to the Public, if I did not embrace this Account with the Bank Act of in this publication. I have therefore placed them at the end of the 9th volume.
