the_o 18_o month_n tax_n which_o be_v payable_a in_o six_o quarterly_o payment_n the_o matter_n of_o fact_n be_v thus_o the_o first_o quarter_n of_o that_o tax_n be_v charge_v by_o the_o lord_n

13_o s._n 10_o d._n ½_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n be_v thus_o by_o the_o record_n of_o the_o exchequer_n there_o appear_v to_o have_v be_v pay_v upon_o those_o three_o quarter_n to_o the_o day_n that_o my_o lord_n danby_n resign_v the_o treasurer_n staff_n the_o sum_n of_o 584718_o l._n 7._o s._n 5_o d._n so_o that_o the_o mistake_v herein_o be_v 19219_o l._n 13_o s._n 6_o d._n ½_o beside_o

the_o mistake_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v 22908_o l._n 15_o s._n 3_o d._n and_o this_o fall_v but_o little_a short_a of_o the_o computation_n of_o the_o last_o three_o quarter_n in_o the_o print_a

matter_n of_o fact_n be_v true_a and_o i_o believe_v the_o custom_n at_o that_o time_n be_v manage_v by_o most_o excellent_a commissioner_n and_o that_o which_o do_v yet_o contribute_v more_o to_o

word_n of_o the_o examiner_n that_o be_v here_o transpose_v be_v perhaps_o to_o try_v to_o make_v it_o imply_v that_o the_o examiner_n do_v charge_v my_o lord_n of_o danby_n with_o hinder_v money_n to_o be_v lend_v on_o the_o five_o part_n of_o excise_n whereas_o it_o be_v plain_a enough_o it_o be_v for_o hinder_v the_o money_n which_o be_v lend_v to_o be_v repay_v according_a to_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n the_o word_n leave_v out_o be_v a_o whole_a parenthesis_n viz._n which_o be_v often_o complain_v of_o public_o at_o the_o exchequer_n by_o the_o lender_n of_o the_o money_n if_o
