of_o discount_n on_o other_o particular_n and_o if_o all_o the_o unprofitable_a acre_n be_v cast_v in_o it_o may_v near_o answer_v the_o difference_n of_o value_n the_o now_o beneficial_a lease_n do_v

in_o all_o denomination_n of_o land_n to_o which_o we_o can_v annex_v no_o number_n of_o acre_n not_o receive_v any_o light_n either_o by_o the_o survey_v commissioner_n book_n inquisition_n or_o our_o inquiry_n in_o the_o country_n and_o because_o they_o be_v quantity_n of_o land_n that_o vast_o differ_v from_o one_o another_o both_o in_o value_n and_o number_n of_o acre_n we_o make_v no_o certain_a estimate_n of_o they_o though_o it_o seem_v very_o probable_a to_o we_o that_o they_o amount_v to_o seventy_o or_o eighty_o thousand_o acre_n which_o we_o humble_o conceive_v will_n much_o more_o than_o answer_v all_o the_o deficiency_n before_o mention_v 77._o and_o here_o we_o shall_v take_v notice_n of_o the_o general_a waste_n commit_v on_o the_o forfeit_v wood_n of_o this_o
