To the Honourable the House of Commons , FOR Raising of Monies . It is humbly offered ,

IF in Your Wisdoms it be thought fit , That from and after the Twenty fourth Day of June 1699. for and during the Space of Five Years , whoever shall happen to Die within the said time without lawful Issue living at the time of their Death , the Twentieth part of their Estate , after an Allowance made for Payment of all their just Debts , be appropriated to the Publick , and the Value thereof paid within one Year after the Decease of the Party : And whoever shall defraud , to pay double what Convicted of , one half to the Publick , and the other half to the Informer . It is presumed , That this may be a good Fund for One Million at Seven per Cent. to pay both Principal , Interest , and incident Charges thereon within Five Years , the time limited ; and being a Contingency on a Benefit accruing to some Persons at the same time , will not be grievous , especially to the Poor . This , together with the Regulation thereof , is with all Submission proposed to this most August Assembly , by a Well-wisher to the Publick , and

Bridgwater-Square , February 3d , 169●/9. Your Honours Very humble and Faithful Servant , W m. BOND .
