In Average annual cost including any thing
of the last two years, to the sum of £9.5:5 1/2, which from
balances as above £9.5:5 1/2
accidental circumstances, is higher than may again be expected,
for the Reverend Magistrate, To take that rate of profit which to
the Claimants as the least advantageous of all these six Rates, say them, as above £9:5:5 1/2

2. Add amount of Salaries in the Penitentiary House
containing 1000 prisoners, meaning the Penitentiary which under the Claimants said Contract was to have been

"and allowing for a Secretary, with a suitable number of
"Turnkeys and Taskmasters, the yearly expence of such
