A formal petition from the Keys (Manx Parliament) and merchants to King George III, requesting relief from post-Revestment trade restrictions that have severely damaged the island's economy. The petition details economic distress, population emigration, declining fisheries, harbour decay, and loss of military garrison, arguing that the 1765 restrictive legislation was designed for the proprietary smuggling trade which no longer exists. Accompanied by a covering letter from Governor John Wood and supporting memorial.
