Query 3

I am now the better enabled to give make answer to the
Requisition the 2d above mentioned, by which I am the Accountant is required
"to furnish proof, that the articles, itemed in these extracts
"from the books, were actually received by him."

This proof I am enabled to furnish and do for the 2d time, the first being unnoticed + + Acct last sent on
14 July 1808 with a Letter
to Mr Secy Mallett hereby
afford offer to furnish, in and by the testimony of Mr
John Lloyd, by whom the person already mentioned John Lloyd by whom in quality of Foreman under my said Brother, on the present occasion/in respect of the works in question,
the articles here in question were received; and by whom or under whose care, as they

by Mr Lloyd, without having been sent by and from
somebody else.

viz. to prove the prices paid for the articles so received.
No, say I, not to prove the prices: for it is not necessary I do not know recollect, at any rate
that in the Invoices any mention of prices should actually

contained in to have been mentioned by them, all that could can have been ascertained
is — the prices d expected and demanded: as to the prices received,
