A58266	Reasons humbly offered to the Parliament for the taking away the office and seal of the aulnagers and collecting the duty of aulnage (or a duty in lieu thereof) at the Custom-House		1691 (1691)	Wing R561J; ESTC R205859	2,104	1

reason_n humble_o offer_v to_o the_o parliament_n for_o the_o take_v away_o the_o office_n and_o seal_n of_o the_o aulnager_n and_o collect_v the_o duty_n of_o aulnage_n or_o a_o duty_n in_o lieu_n thereof_o at_o the_o customhouse_n the_o office_n and_o seal_n of_o the_o aulnager_n be_v no_o way_n serviceable_a to_o the_o woollen_a manufacture_n nor_o answer_v the_o end_n of_o their_o constitution_n and_o whereas_o the_o manner_n of_o collect_v the_o subsidy_n of_o aulnage_n be_v not_o only_o very_o chargeable_a to_o the_o crown_n but_o extreme_o grievous_a to_o the_o subject_a it_o be_v therefore_o humble_o propose_v that_o this_o office_n and_o seal_n shall_v be_v whole_o take_v away_o and_o that_o the_o subsidy_n of_o aulnage_n or_o a_o duty_n not_o exceed_v it_o shall_v be_v collect_v at_o the_o customhouse_n with_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o king_n custom_n payable_a there_o and_o if_o the_o duty_n hereafter_o mention_v be_v add_v to_o and_o collect_v at_o the_o customhouse_n it_o will_v be_v in_o more_o money_n to_o answer_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o crown_n and_o duchess_n of_o richmond_n who_o have_v a_o grant_n from_o the_o crown_n than_o be_v now_o pay_v by_o the_o earmer_n as_o be_v thus_o demonstrate_v  _fw-fr l._n by_o account_n take_v out_o of_o the_o customhouse_n book_n it_o do_v appear_v that_o the_o subsidy_n of_o poundage_n pay_v there_o for_o the_o woollen_a manufacture_n export_v come_v to_o one_o year_n with_o another_o for_o 18_o year_n last_o pass_v above_o per_fw-la annum_fw-la 33000_o by_o compare_v the_o aulnage_n duty_n as_o propose_v with_o the_o customhouse_n duty_n it_o do_v appear_v that_o the_o duty_n of_o aulnage_n amount_v to_o about_o a_o six_o part_n of_o the_o customhouse_n duty_n so_o that_o if_o it_o have_v be_v collect_v with_o the_o custom_n it_o wiould_v have_v amount_v per_fw-la annum_fw-la 5500_o there_o be_v now_o pay_v to_o the_o duchess_n of_o richmond_n and_o other_o who_o have_v a_o

to_o little_a second_o that_o in_o a_o time_n of_o peace_n it_o will_v not_o be_v sufficient_a to_o answer_v the_o farmer_n for_o their_o interest_n they_o make_v above_o 3000_o l._n per_fw-la

it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o what_o be_v propose_v will_v not_o be_v sufficient_a to_o answer_v the_o farmer_n demand_n but_o whether_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o these_o farmer_n pretend_a or_o real_a profit_n the_o subject_n shall_v be_v still_o continue_v under_o the_o oppression_n and_o burden_n they_o have_v so_o long_o and_o so_o just_o complain_v of_o be_v with_o submission_n leave_v
