further_o we_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o inform_v your_o honour_n that_o the_o fee_n in_o the_o say_a court_n be_v so_o extravagant_a that_o mr._n palmer_n who_o act_v as_o register_n in_o the_o right_n of_o mr._n poultney_n and_o divide_v the_o profit_n with_o he_o demand_v of_o mr._n luke_n dillon_n for_o the_o fee_n of_o his_o father_n adjudication_n eighty_o six_o pound_n and_o mr._n steel_n cryer_n of_o the_o court_n fifteen_o pound_n more_o nor_o can_v mr._n dillon_n get_v out_o the_o order_n to_o reverse_v his_o father_n outlawry_n till_o he_o have_v pay_v fifty_o two_o pound_n in_o ready_a money_n to_o mr._n palmer_n and_o give_v he_o his_o bond_n for_o fourteen_o pound_n more_o and_o have_v pay_v mr._n steel_n five_o pound_n beside_o ten_o pound_n which_o he_o have_v pay_v mr._n palmer_n for_o order_n the_o cause_n be_v continue_v in_o the_o court_n near_o two_o year_n nor_o be_v this_o a_o single_a case_n for_o many_o more_o have_v pay_v great_a sum_n of_o money_n on_o the_o like_a account_n the_o charge_n of_o enter_v a_o claim_n only_o before_o we_o act_v in_o our_o commission_n be_v near_o five_o pound_n though_o by_o express_a word_n in_o the_o article_n of_o limerick_n no_o person_n ought_v to_o pay_v any_o fee_n but_o to_o write_v clerk_n 21._o we_o may_v add_v to_o this_o that_o the_o proceed_n of_o the_o court_n of_o claim_n be_v almost_o universal_o complain_v of_o and_o we_o fear_v with_o too_o much_o reason_n some_o person_n have_v be_v adjudge_v without_o post_v their_o claim_n other_o within_o a_o day_n or_o two_o after_o before_o the_o king_n council_n or_o witness_n can_v be_v ready_a which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o court_n itself_o that_o require_v fourteen_o day_n between_o the_o post_a every_o claim_n and_o the_o adjudication_n it_o be_v also_o observable_a that_o if_o any_o person_n will_v disclaim_v his_o estate_n he_o meet_v with_o very_o little_a difficulty_n in_o be_v adjudge_v though_o afterward_o there_o can_v be_v no_o obstacle_n in_o the_o reverse_v his_o outlawry_n and_o consequent_o to_o be_v restore_v to_o his_o estate_n in_o general_n it_o seem_v to_o we_o that_o there_o have_v be_v great_a miscarriage_n in_o the_o say_a court_n and_o that_o in_o many_o case_n the_o article_n of_o limerick_n and_o gallway_n have_v be_v expound_v too_o beneficial_o in_o favour_n of_o person_n outlaw_v and_o often_o on_o the_o oath_n of_o one_o witness_n who_o we_o humble_o conceive_v can_v not_o be_v convict_v of_o perjury_n either_o by_o common_a or_o statute_n law_n by_o this_o mean_n we_o apprehend_v a_o great_a many_o person_n have_v be_v restore_v to_o their_o estate_n that_o upon_o review_n will_v be_v find_v to_o belong_v to_o his_o majesty_n to_o come_v to_o a_o more_o particular_a knowledge_n of_o which_o we_o send_v to_o the_o say_a mr._n palmer_n for_o the_o minute_n of_o the_o adjudication_n but_o he_o have_v take_v they_o in_o shorthand_n only_o and_o never_o since_o transcribe_v they_o we_o can_v not_o get_v such_o a_o account_n as_o be_v sit_v to_o lay_v before_o your_o honour_n we_o shall_v only_o take_v notice_n of_o one_o thing_n that_o seem_v to_o we_o very_o extraordinary_a that_o more_o
