will_v affirm_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o answer_n and_o the_o falsehood_n of_o mr._n shallett_n insinuation_n mr._n shallett_n indeed_o by_o propose_v 6_o s._n and_o 6_o d._n or_o 7_o s._n freight_v for_o a_o london_n cauldron_n do_v make_v a_o show_n of_o serve_v the_o owner_n of_o ship_n but_o in_o reality_n they_o can_v reap_v no_o profit_n by_o it_o for_o the_o ship_n will_v not_o make_v

aboard_o the_o whole_a trade_n season_n and_o whether_o she_o be_v at_o sea_n or_o in_o harbour_n the_o charge_n be_v the_o same_o mr._n shallett_n by_o his_o combination_n will_v sure_o have_v

england_n and_o after_o those_o be_v well_o employ_v no_o doubt_n he_o will_v next_o prefer_v those_o ship_n that_o his_o confederate_n the_o coal-owner_n have_v any_o part_n in_o and_o these_o be_v not_o a_o few_o so_o here_o be_v a_o wheel_n within_o a_o wheel_n a_o monopoly_n upon_o a_o monopoly_n mr._n shallett_n must_v not_o only_o have_v all_o the_o coal_n in_o his_o own_o hand_n but_o he_o must_v have_v no_o ship_n but_o his_o own_o and_o his_o confederate_n to_o carry_v they_o and_o no_o doubt_n none_o but_o he_o and_o their_o servant_n to_o load_v deliver_v and_o vend_v they_o it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v and_o it_o can_v never_o be_v too_o much_o regret_v that_o the_o navigation_n go_v to_o wrack_n and_o be_v at_o present_a perish_v to_o a_o degree_n beyond_o what_o be_v consistent_a with_o the_o safety_n and_o tranquillity_n of_o england_n the_o ship_n go_v to_o sea_n and_o return_v without_o profit_n to_o the_o owner_n but_o the_o true_a reason_n lie_v in_o the_o

the_o war_n raise_v this_o increase_n of_o ship_n confine_v it_o to_o convoy_n and_o reduce_v the_o number_n of_o voyages_n and_o consequent_o increase_v the_o number_n of_o ship_n the_o peace_n

circumstance_n the_o ship_n must_v all_o go_v to_o sea_n every_o one_o endeavour_n to_o sell_v cheap_a than_o another_o that_o they_o may_v run_v fast_o than_o another_o and_o thus_o they_o have_v

mr._n shallett_n will_v lay_v on_o 5_o or_o 10_o s._n more_o at_o his_o discretion_n upon_o the_o cauldron_n of_o coal_n and_o make_v a_o reduction_n of_o another_o three_o in_o the_o collier-trade_n
