Answer
Query 3
(7
"Description of the Voucher" (Item 2 continued) "1795 Feb.y 14 To amount of Goods, being
"part of the sum of £17511. 11s 9d "<del. £309. 13.7"
April 4th 231.14.10
"Sept 22nd 356. 6. 0."
£897.14.5.
"Observation of Query" No of the Query 3"
Preamble to Query 3. The paper relating to the
"delivery of these articles + and purporting to contain copies +
"of Invoices appearing to be an extract only from
"Messrs Booth and Co's Account boons and copies of
"copies in part only of the original Invoices and
"it being stated in the Accountant's pencil observation
"at the foot of Messrs Booth and Co's certified Account
"that the original Invoice never was in his hands.[1]"
[1] Answer.
Of the documents which are here in question, and which, so far they
want, were sent to the Board to serve as Vouchers, I have not preserved
a copy: but, from the tenor of Mr Chief Inspectors
observation in relation to them, I take for granted
that on the five of them or some of them there is something exp
some expression, that which in giving a sort of colour, gave
occasion or like observation the expression of "copies of
"copies" But, by any expression that, on the occasion
in question, my happen to have been employed by
those manufacturers or by any body else will not when the nature of the case
itself will not be altered.
"My conception of the matter and I speak of as a
lawyer and a lawyer that has not been inattentive to the
subject of evidence is — that, in the nature of the case,
any such extract, signed by the same person as the
Invoice (if signed by any body) would have been signed
by, has to the purpose here in question, as good a claim to the title of an original
document or voucher, as the Invoice itself. It is
not (it is true) the original Invoice nor an original
Invoice: but where did Mr Chief Inspector learn that no
other [+]
[+] other evidence than the
particular individual paper, which
happened to be sent along
with, or on the occasion
of, a mass of goods
dispatched from one place
to another.would serve
as good evidence of the
particulars or ? is entitled to be admitted, in the Question of to serve as evidence of the contents? But of this more, when I come to the concluding requisition
with which this Query No 3 concludes.
