[1285] At the time of the convention the eastern part of the State paid, on the average, more than three times as much in taxes per acre as the west. The extremes were startling—the trans-Alleghany section (West Virginia) paid only 92 cents for every $8.43 paid by the Tidewater. (Proceedings and Debates of the Virginia State Convention of 1829-30, 214, 258, 660-61.)
