Carolina, and it is hereby Enacted by the authority of the same, That the said 
Thomas Johnston, his heirs, executors or administrators, have full power and 
authority to collect the said tax, under the same rules and regulations as 
other public taxes are collected and accounted for; and that he or they 
collect the said tax, and pay the same into the public treasury of the state 
of North Carolina, on or before the last day of September next; any law, usage 
or custom to the contrary notwithstanding.

II. And be it further Enacted by the authority aforesaid, That this Act shall 
extend to the counties of Tyrrel and Rutherford, in as full and ample manner 
as to the county of Onslow.
