The mode method employ'd for exhibiting the
number of years, if any, which remain unpaid,
and thence the increase of value resulting from the
forbearance, stands altogether clear of secure against forgery: or
at what comes to the same thing may be secured
against such frauds by the most simple and unfailing
means. As the span allotted for the Register
of by mention payments, as often as a payment is made, an entry a memorandum of the year is to be made entered at
the Office. This being the case it is out by
obliteration and obliteration only, if at all,
that any advantage is to be gained obtained by
individuals in the way of forgery. By In that way, neither by insertion
nor by alteration is any thing to be done.
As to obliteration, if handwriting for the marking
of the year handwriting were employd, and to be performed
with common ink, on common paper, by acid,
if it were worth while, the writing might be discharged.
But against this fraud the chemical art affords there are two expedients
either of them effectual: one is to mix insert into
the ink composition of the ink an ingredient which
is the same that it possesses the colour of which is not
destructible by acids: the other is, to insert in into the
composition of the paper an ingredient which
by change of colour shall betray the application
of an acid. A preferable
