on_o bring_v in_o to_o receive_v and_o to_o give_v the_o finder_n his_o due_a immediate_o but_o for_o dog_n pocketbook_n and_o key_n it_o shall_v reserve_v they_o to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o they_o

so_o indeed_o less_o will_v not_o be_v sufficient_a either_o to_o encourage_v the_o finder_n to_o bring_v in_o what_o he_o have_v discover_v or_o to_o answer_v the_o trust_n and_o hazard_v of_o the_o

to_o that_o i_o answer_v it_o will_v rather_o vast_o promote_v they_o for_o as_o now_o all_o finding_n be_v conceal_v so_o by_o this_o mean_n they_o be_v discover_v they_o will_v be_v assure_v of_o they_o indeed_o in_o this_o case_n they_o will_v be_v force_v to_o make_v some_o allowance_n to_o the_o office_n and_o finder_n for_o their_o care_n but_o that_o sure_o will_v be_v reasonable_a when_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o be_v require_v of_o the_o loser_n second_o that_o the_o gazette_n will_v be_v wrong_v in_o their_o publication_n but_o as_o to_o that_o i_o answer_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v very_o inconsiderable_a for_o publication_n there_o be_v general_o of_o dog_n steal_v of_o value_n and_o of_o horse_n and_o of_o other_o thing_n lose_v in_o the_o country_n and_o as_o to_o

the_o contrary_a that_o it_o can_v but_o be_v the_o great_a disincouragement_n to_o they_o imaginable_a for_o when_o they_o who_o have_v lose_v or_o be_v robe_v of_o their_o good_n shall_v repair_v

the_o loser_n and_o lord_n of_o royalty_n allow_v the_o fee_n of_o find_v and_o the_o fee_n of_o the_o office_n but_o as_o to_o that_o i_o propose_v we_o may_v be_v effectual_o help_v by_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n if_o not_o by_o the_o king_n patent_n five_o but_o you_o will_v say_v what_o security_n shall_v the_o loser_n and_o finder_n have_v not_o to_o be_v wrong_v by_o the_o office_n i_o

shall_v the_o lord_n be_v right_o be_v secure_v also_o six_o but_o you_o will_v continue_v to_o object_n that_o finder_n will_v still_o conceal_v their_o good_n and_o money_n notwithstanding_o i_o say_v to_o prevent_v that_o a_o clause_n in_o such_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n that_o if_o the_o finder_n bring_v not_o in_o the_o good_n or_o money_n within_o a_o week_n after_o they_o be_v find_v

such_o a_o clause_n will_v make_v it_o almost_o impossible_a that_o any_o thing_n shall_v be_v conceal_v from_o the_o office_n the_o benefit_n of_o such_o a_o office_n will_v be_v such_o as_o these_o first_o you_o see_v this_o office_n will_v be_v as_o a_o general_n place_n of_o notice_n for_o seize_v all_o manner_n of_o suspicious_a good_n second_o this_o office_n will_v as_o well_o encourage_v

pay_v for_o it_o too_o by_o a_o informer_n which_o in_o the_o present_a case_n they_o will_v be_v in_o great_a danger_n of_o especial_o when_o we_o consider_v that_o finder_n have_v general_o too_o much_o joy_n to_o be_v silent_a three_o a_o informer_n in_o this_o case_n will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o a_o contemptible_a and_o servile_a office_n that_o it_o will_v not_o be_v too_o mean_a even_o for_o a_o gentleman_n to_o undertake_v and_o though_o he_o may_v give_v his_o reward_n to_o who_o he_o will_v yet_o in_o honour_n he_o may_v assist_v any_o one_o when_o so_o base_o and_o mean_o

will_v not_o draw_v to_o it_o a_o little_a sure_a and_o honest_a profit_n will_v tempt_v thither_o even_o thing_n of_o six_o penny_n worth_a and_o he_o that_o in_o such_o case_n will_v not_o care_v to_o carry_v the_o thing_n to_o the_o office_n himself_o will_v not_o want_v some_o one_o or_o other_o that_o he_o may_v oblige_v by_o it_o so_o that_o the_o benefit_n of_o such_o a_o office_n must_v
