information_n and_o direction_n to_o such_o person_n as_o be_v incline_v to_o america_n more_o especial_o those_o relate_v to_o the_o province_n of_o pensilvania_n reprint_v in_o the_o year_n 1686_o information_n and_o direction_n to_o such_o person_n as_o be_v incline_v to_o america_n &c_n &c_n that_o the_o value_n and_o improvement_n of_o estate_n in_o our_o part_n of_o america_n may_v yet_o appear_v with_o further_a cleanness_n assurance_n of_o enquirer_n i_o propose_v to_o speak_v my_o own_o knowledge_n and_o the_o observation_n of_o other_o as_o particular_o as_o i_o can_v which_o i_o shall_v comprise_v under_o these_o head_n i._o the_o advance_v that_o be_v upon_o money_n and_o good_n ii_o the_o advance_n that_o be_v upon_o labour_n be_v it_o of_o handicraft_n or_o other_o iii_o the_o advance_n that_o be_v upon_o land_n iv._o the_o charge_n of_o transport_v a_o family_n and_o fit_v a_o plantation_n v._o the_o way_n the_o poor_a sort_n may_v be_v transport_v and_o seat_v with_o advantage_n to_o the_o rich_a that_o help_v they_o vi_o the_o easy_a and_o better_a provision_n that_o be_v to_o be_v make_v there_o for_o posterity_n especial_o by_o those_o that_o be_v not_o of_o great_a substance_n vii_o what_o vtensel_n and_o good_n be_v fit_v to_o carry_v for_o use_n or_o profit_n for_o the_o first_o such_o money_n as_o may_v be_v carry_v as_o piece_n of_o eight_o advance_v thirty_o and_o good_n at_o least_o fifty_o per_fw-la cent_n say_v i_o have_v 100_o l._n sterl_n if_o i_o be_o but_o six_o in_o family_n i_o will_v pay_v my_o passage_n with_o the_o advance_v upon_o my_o money_n and_o find_v my_o hundred_o pound_n good_a in_o the_o country_n at_o last_o upon_o good_n well_o buy_v and_o sort_v there_o be_v more_o profit_n but_o some_o money_n be_v very_o requisite_a for_o trade_n sake_n for_o we_o find_v it_o give_v good_n a_o better_a market_n so_o that_o consider_v the_o great_a quantity_n of_o good_n already_o carry_v it_o be_v not_o amiss_o at_o present_a if_o one_o half_a be_v in_o money_n and_o the_o other_o in_o good_n thus_o in_o general_n but_o it_o particular_o encourage_v merchant_n because_o the_o profit_n by_o advance_v be_v seldom_o less_o than_o 50_o l._n sterl_n per_fw-la cent_n which_o be_v very_o considerable_a and_o we_o have_v already_o get_v some_o thing_n for_o return_n as_o skin_n fur_n whale-oyle_n tobacco_n etc._n etc._n ii_o for_o labour_n be_v it_o of_o handicraft_n or_o other_o there_o be_v a_o considerable_a encouragement_n by_o advance_v of_o price_n to_o what_o be_v here_o because_o the_o good_n manufacture_v there_o advance_v equal_a to_o those_o the_o merchant_n sell_v and_o where_o provision_n be_v at_o least_o as_o cheap_a and_o there_o be_v such_o additional_a gain_n to_o the_o first_o gain_n of_o handicraft_n here_o of_o who_o the_o merchant_n buy_v the_o american_n handicraft_n must_v have_v a_o extraordinary_a time_n of_o it_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o under_o labourer_n for_o some_o time_n until_o the_o country_n be_v better_o replenish_v with_o people_n iii_o the_o advance_n upon_o land_n be_v encourage_v which_o will_v be_v best_a apprehend_v by_o a_o english_a understanding_n in_o a_o comparison_n with_o the_o land_n of_o england_n that_o he_o be_v familiar_o acquaint_v with_o if_o 500_o acre_n of_o uncleared_a land_n there_o indifferent_o choose_v will_v keep_v as_o many_o milch_n cowes_n or_o fat_a as_o many_o bullock_n for_o the_o market_n in_o summer_n as_o 50_o acre_n of_o improve_a land_n in_o england_n as_o choose_v aforesaid_a can_v do_v then_o by_o compute_v the_o value_n of_o the_o summer_n grass_n of_o such_o fifty_o acre_n of_o land_n here_o we_o shall_v the_o better_o find_v the_o value_n of_o 500_o acre_n of_o land_n in_o america_n for_o within_o that_o compass_n the_o same_o quantity_n of_o cattle_n may_v be_v well_o keep_v admit_v this_o then_o that_o the_o summer_n grass_n of_o 50_o acre_n of_o middling_a land_n in_o england_n be_v worth_a 15_o l._n i_o conceive_v that_o make_v 20_o l._n which_o be_v the_o price_n of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o 500_o acre_n no_o dear_a purchase_n the_o cost_n to_o go_v thither_o be_v no_o objection_n because_o it_o be_v pay_v by_o the_o advance_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o money_n and_o good_n at_o the_o rate_n aforesaid_a if_o the_o hazard_n of_o the_o sea_n be_v object_v we_o see_v that_o the_o five_o hundred_o ship_n use_v those_o part_n do_v not_o miscarry_v and_o the_o risk_n be_v run_v for_o themselves_o only_o however_o except_o in_o winter_n passage_n
