with_o wool_n for_o exon_n may_v thereby_o have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o go_v for_o france_n since_o which_o time_n viz_o in_o the_o 10_o and_o 11_o of_o king_n willam_n by_o a_o act_n entitle_v a_o

1._o by_o computation_n of_o the_o serge-maker_n they_o work_v up_o two_o hundred_o bag_n of_o wool_n in_o the_o city_n and_o suburb_n weekly_a and_o in_o crediton_n ashburton_n tottness_n newton_n and_o other_o place_n adjacent_a they_o convert_v the_o value_n of_o two_o hundred_o pack_n more_o into_o serges_n which_o four_o hundred_o pack_n cost_v the_o carriage_n be_v near_o forty_o mile_n five_o shilling_n the_o pack_n which_o be_v one_o hundred_o pound_n per_fw-la week_n and_o be_v per_fw-la annum_fw-la five_o thousand_o pound_n 2._o wool_n be_v a_o commodity_n know_v to_o draw_v water_n insensible_o on_o shipboard_n be_v the_o vessel_n never_o so_o tight_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o custom_n in_o exon_n to_o take_v the_o pack_n at_o the_o weight_n they_o weigh_v at_o the_o weigh-house_n in_o ireland_n without_o break_v the_o pack_n but_o now_o they_o must_v carry_v it_o forty_o mile_n the_o pack_n be_v break_v and_o they_o can_v take_v they_o by_o invoyce_n and_o many_o hundred_o maker_n not_o be_v able_a to_o buy_v a_o month_n wool_n and_o pay_v for_o it_o before_o hand_n be_v necessitate_v to_o have_v it_o in_o exon_n and_o either_o to_o pay_v for_o all_o the_o water_n it_o gain_v on_o shipboard_n and_o all_o the_o dirt_n and_o rain_n it_o gather_v in_o forty_o miles_n carraiage_n or_o otherwise_o must_v run_v all_o hazard_n for_o if_o the_o carrier_n take_v a_o stone_n out_o of_o a_o pack_n the_o rain_n if_o it_o be_v wet_a weather_n or_o the_o dash_a of_o the_o horse_n carry_v all_o on_o horseback_n will_v makeup_v the_o weight_n so_o that_o no_o man_n can_v possible_o know_v how_o much_o wool_n and_o how_o much_o water_n he_o have_v for_o his_o money_n and_o not_o one_o man_n live_v that_o drive_v such_o a_o trade_n can_v tell_v what_o he_o do_v it_o can_v be_v compute_v that_o they_o pay_v so_o little_a as_o for_o 12_o pound_n of_o water_n upon_o a_o pack_n which_o at_o 8_o d._n the_o pound_n be_v 8_o s._n a_o pack_n and_o on_o 400_o pack_n a_o week_n be_v 200_o pound_n and_o be_v 10000_o l._n per_fw-la annum_fw-la it_o be_v find_v by_o experience_n that_o wool_n have_v increase_v a_o ten_o part_n and_o not_o to_o be_v discern_v by_o handle_v all_o which_o premise_n be_v humble_o refer_v to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o this_o honourable_a house_n it_o be_v pray_v and_o hope_a that_o a_o clause_n may_v be_v bring_v in_o for_o wool_n to_o be_v import_v at_o the_o key_n of_o exon_n under_o what_o ever_o restriction_n and_o limitation_n shall_v be_v further_o require_v
