§ 3. Capitalist Settlers with capital, in hand – their inducements

1. To each such Settler to be limited to £500. is to an
amount not exceeding that of which he himself has himself
to be in possession and has actually in the of stock
located in the Colony.

2. Assurance of the existence of the quantity of stock
in the of the Colony in the Metropolis, composed of
the instruments of husbandry

3. So of all other articles regarded as necessary.

4. Of all those several articles lists should be printed
with a specification of the several quantities of each

4. Of the outgoings and in-comings of each
sort of article a regular account, open to all inspectors should be kept at
the Office for this purpose in the Colony.

5. f Against engrossing, adequate precautions
should be carefully taken. By In the Mother country, all
sent from enactments for the purpose are generally speaking and
pernicious. Not so in a Colony, as to the
of a four month Voyage .. Buying up the whole stock
of this or that article, a an astute capitalist might be able
to screw up the price to a most oppressive amount

6. Moreover, by false reports, if not obviated, the
requisite supply might be kept back from being sent from
this country by traders at large from the Mother Country: not by the man in the Colony, the
scarcity might be kept up not encreased.
