A sum (say £10) can not have been transferred offered (a) from
(a) Paid is
Nokes to Stiles, but it must have been transferred to Stiles
from Nokes. If then number wither the head of either of
these two persons no mention of is made of it, this non-existence
of mention made of it, shews that in either one of them two places
or in the other, error must have had place: if
the head of Nokes mention is made of it of the transfer of it made
while under the head of Stiles no such mention is made of
it, the will be shew either that under the head of Nokes
a sum which was not issued has been entered as issued, or that
under the head of Stiles entry of a sum which was received has not
been made. It is more less likely that a man who is accountable should omitt
to enter a sum which he has received, than enter a sum
as received a sum which he has not received: for by
omitting to enter as issued by him a sum which has been
issued by him, he would charge himself with, and thereby
sustain a loss of, to that amount. It is more likely that
a man should omitt to enter as received by him a sum
which had been received by him than that he should enter
as received by him a sum which had not been received
by him: for by entering as received by him a sum which had
not been received by him, he would charge himself with, and
become a loser of, that amount
Thus from the giving employment to the system
of Double Entry, on the part in the accounts of its subordinate
functionaries a Government has evey to gain, &
nothing to lose.
