Prizes 1805 1809 §. 7-9. §. 9
Of the two forms contained in Schedule (B) the object
is to enable a Mariner to receive the benefit of any
such encouragement money as may be due to him.
In this instance case after the word Prize comes the word
after the word Prize mention is made of Bounty money: so
that in this instance the form will serve for Bounty
money, which a purpose in the instance of Schedule (A) can
not (it has been seen) be served by it. But neither
of Salvage money nor of Seizure money is any
mention to be found in it.
Of in Schedule (C) the object is to render to
a Soldier a the service analogous to that sought to be
rendered to a Mariner by Schedule (B). Of Bounty
money as well as of Prize mention is here likewise
made: but neither of Salvage nor of Seizure.
The last Schedule (Schedule F) is intituled
Form of Licence, and the occupation which it is the
object of it to enable a man to exercise is that of
a Recovery Agent as he may be called in contradistinction
to an Agent for Prizes. It consists (as
therein described) in acting "as an Agent in the Receipt
"of Wages, Pay, Prize money and Bounty money".
ere there Thus not only Prize money and Bounty money
but Wages, and Pay are mentioned. Yet neither
on this occasion, if either Salvage money or Seizure
money is any mention made.
What is the consequence? that whatsoever may
be due to a man on either of those accounts, for the
obtainment of it, he cannot under and by virtue of this
Act obtain any such assistance, as for the obtainment of money⊞ ⊞ due on the score of Prize or Bounty the legislator has contrived to let him have.
(a) Immediately After the word Prize
the word money is
here, (with perfect
propriety surely,)
inserted: inserted
in this, but not in
any of the other Schedules.
