a_o ship_n of_o 300_o man_n be_v order_v to_o be_v pay_v at_o portsmouth_n or_o chatham_n fourteen_o day_n hence_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v ten_o day_n before_o the_o money_n and_o commissioner_n

in_o their_o be_v force_v to_o run_v threescore_o mile_n after_o their_o just_a debt_n but_o i_o have_v often_o admire_v at_o the_o reason_n of_o put_v his_o majesty_n to_o extraordinary_a needless_a charge_n to_o carry_v away_o so_o many_o hundred_o thousand_o of_o pound_n from_o london_n to_o those_o two_o miserable_a place_n chatham_n and_o portsmouth_n and_o now_o i_o think_v of_o chatham_n

there_o than_o the_o city_n of_o london_n shall_v to_o get_v they_o to_o be_v pay_v here_o how_o kiss_v go_v by_o favour_n i_o know_v not_o but_o now_o to_o have_v do_v with_o that_o have_v almost_o tire_v myself_o with_o write_v and_o yet_o lest_o a_o great_a part_n unwritten_a that_o i_o shall_v or_o may_v have_v write_v will_v come_v to_o propose_v something_o i_o promise_v for_o the_o nation_n advantage_n to_o some_o million_o of_o money_n in_o a_o few_o year_n and_o it_o be_v this_o suppose_v the_o distil_v trade_n for_o brandy_n do_v take_v up_o in_o one_o year_n about_o one_o hundred_o thousand_o quarter_n of_o malt_n and_o now_o suppose_v at_o 30_o shilling_n the_o quarter_n that_o be_v one_o hundred_o and_o fifty_o thousand_o pound_n which_o by_o the_o way_n be_v a_o prodigious_a quantity_n of_o corn_n i_o be_v a_o go_v to_o say_v waste_v but_o i_o will_v say_v distil_v out_o for_o idle_a tipple_n that_o our_o forefather_n hear_v not_o so_o much_o as_o the_o name_n of_o and_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n corn_n have_v be_v so_o exceed_o dear_a and_o so_o many_o poor_a ready_a to_o perish_v if_o there_o be_v near_o so_o much_o of_o it_o turn_v into_o fire_n and_o vapour_n that_o it_o may_v be_v have_v kill_v more_o man_n and_o woman_n these_o late_a year_n in_o england_n than_o the_o sword_n and_o it_o fire_v the_o very_a soul_n of_o many_o out_o of_o their_o body_n by_o degree_n if_o not_o present_o as_o several_a have_v be_v but_o by_o degree_n i_o have_v know_v many_o both_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v shorten_v their_o life_n many_o year_n by_o drink_v so_o much_o of_o such_o fiery_a drink_n to_o dry_v up_o their_o very_a liver_n or_o lung_n and_o neither_o fear_n of_o death_n or_o any_o wisdom_n sense_n or_o reason_n can_v take_v off_o mankind_n from_o what_o their_o lust_n and_o appetite_n be_v set_v upon_o and_o if_o there_o be_v a_o open_a trade_n to_o france_n if_o we_o shall_v but_o send_v a_o million_o a_o year_n of_o our_o large_a money_n for_o their_o brandy_n and_o wine_n it_o will_v be_v the_o way_n to_o beggar_n we_o in_o a_o very_a few_o year_n therefore_o if_o we_o must_v have_v so_o much_o brandy_n in_o england_n i_o will_v humble_o propose_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o law_n make_v to_o have_v our_o hedge_n row_v in_o every_o field_n by_o act_n of_o parliament_n oblige_v in_o seven_o or_o eight_o year_n time_n to_o have_v a_o appletree_n in_o every_o thirty_o foot_n of_o hedge_n and_o there_o may_v be_v several_a million_o of_o appletree_n plant_v in_o eight_o year_n time_n the_o kernel_n of_o appel_n now_o will_v the_o first_o two_o or_o three_o year_n produce_v nursery_n of_o tree_n enough_o and_o they_o in_o about_o ten_o or_o twelve_o year_n may_v come_v to_o bear_v fruit_n and_o be_v as_o i_o say_v plant_v in_o the_o hedg-row_n need_v not_o take_v up_o a_o acre_n of_o land_n for_o 40_o million_o of_o tree_n and_o if_o the_o tree_n come_v to_o bear_v will_v preserve_v our_o corn_n from_o be_v burn_v up_o i_o mean_v into_o brandy_n and_o it_o be_v our_o english_a cider_n will_v make_v almost_o as_o good_a brandy_n as_o the_o french_a and_o if_o this_o plantation_n be_v but_o establish_v it_o will_v pay_v its_o own_o charge_n of_o the_o plant_v ten_o time_n over_o quick_o and_o if_o it_o be_v once_o take_v up_o it_o will_v never_o be_v lay_v down_o again_o for_o apple_n be_v for_o meat_n and_o drink_n to_o several_a poor_a family_n in_o the_o country_n and_o at_o last_o the_o very_a wood_n of_o the_o tree_n if_o forty_o year_n old_a will_v be_v worth_a for_o fire_v when_o they_o have_v do_v bear_v fruit_n five_o time_n the_o charge_n of_o plant_v and_o as_o i_o say_v we_o need_v not_o lose_v a_o acre_n of_o land_n and_o if_o any_o will_v propose_v the_o plant_v of_o oak_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n one_o in_o every_o 30_o foot_n of_o hedge-row_n acorn_n be_v cheap_a enough_o and_o if_o every_o twenty_o foot_n have_v a_o appletree_n and_o every_o twenty_o foot_n a_o oak_n plant_v the_o timber_n of_o one_o and_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o other_o will_v make_v the_o next_o age_n rejoice_v and_o have_v cause_n to_o bless_v god_n for_o the_o care_n of_o this_o which_o make_v i_o think_v of_o the_o old_a motto_n he_o that_o delight_v to_o plant_v and_o set_v make_v after_o age_n in_o his_o debt_n now_o if_o after-age_n will_v be_v in_o debt_n to_o this_o for_o several_a new_a folly_n and_o misery_n and_o cheat_v trick_n it_o be_v pity_n but_o they_o shall_v be_v in_o debt_n to_o we_o for_o several_a good_a law_n and_o indeed_o good_a

all_o my_o book_n and_o make_v my_o charge_n almost_o double_a what_o i_o design_v by_o print_v so_o much_o in_o several_a case_n more_o than_o i_o design_v and_o yet_o i_o can_v not_o well_o avoid_v it_o be_v only_o guide_v by_o the_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o god_n but_o want_v a_o wise_a head_n to_o let_v my_o notion_n pass_v through_o and_o be_v always_o afraid_a to_o leave_v out_o my_o own_o honest_a design_n to_o take_v in_o other_o man_n wit_n so_o that_o if_o i_o shall_v suffer_v for_o any_o part_n of_o it_o i_o can_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n bless_v god_n i_o have_v
