[Hosea Stout Diary] Wednesday Decr 2nd 1846. (I was very unwell all day today & did not go out of my house until in the after noon when I went round the city as is my custom and arrainged the [crossed out]) guard for the night. Was at home writing all day & arrainged the guard in the evening, & at 6 oclock went to a council at Horace H. Eldridges.
This evening the committee to draft an assessment law reported the same which was accepted. It taxed all personal property over certain amounts specified in different articles but did not fix the per cent on the amount.
