A REPRESENTATION Of the great EVILS arising by the EXPORTATION of WOOLL A REPRESENTATION of Great EVILS arising by the EXPORTATION of WOOLL Humbly Offer'd to the Honourable HOUSE of COMMONS By WILLIAM WOODFORD I.

There are several good intended Laws already made for remedy thereof But the same could not be effectually put in Execution for want of a Fund to defray the Charge of the Management of so good a Work All which is Humbly offer'd to the Great Wisdom of the Honourable House with all Submission c.
