1. Instance 1.

2. Instance the 2. In Article or Item No 3 said Account6
2. Prayer for information
as be used of proof
concerning the £50 for
Wharfage Item 3
having for its subject a the sum of £50, , paid to Messrs
Campbell and White Timber Merchants at Milbank for
four years Wharfage rent or thereabouts for the said cast iron far down
to Decr 1st 1798. the Accountant had declared that the
"receipt" meaning the original receipt if any taken by or for
by <add> for this Accountant, of the said Messrs Campbell and White </add> at the time, for evidence of such payment, was "not forthcoming:"
but what he thereupon further declared was that [+][+] (in addition to two papers put in to serve as presumptuous as uncircumstantial evidence) "a
"fresh acknowledgement of the receipt of the sum actually
"paid (£50) could doubtless be obtained:" maintaining
as his reason for not having as yet made application for it,
his unwillingness to give "to third parties any trouble" of the
of which he was not assured.
Here then was a paragraph sentiment in which mention 7
is the prayer
was made of two documents carefully distinguished from
each other. - one, under the name of "the receipt", stated
as "not being forthcoming" nor therefore capable of being sent
in., - the other, under the name of "a fresh acknowledgement",
as one of the obtainment of which he was sufficiently
assured, and of which one eventual tender was hereby
made: in which tender was implied a necessary query or perhaps for information which
that, if sent in, it would be received, and, being
received, be deemed accepted as sufficient satisfactory evid
sufficient evidence: evidence sufficient to entitle him, no report
of this item, to his discharge.
