6. That the effect of the said inventions has been the enabling
perfectly raw hands after a very short practice to learn to execute
and execute accordingly, work to a greater value than is
executed in the same number of hours by workmen of ordinary
experience: in so much that of the prisoner workmen in
question had been to be paid according to the value of their work
to their employer, the wages of their labour would have amounted
to more than the wages of the labour of so many ordinary
workmen.
7. That at the time of the acceptance given to the
Contract viz Ao 1793 the ordinary wages of the lowest paid
species of labour were not less than 2s.6d per day: and that
the ordinary wages of men employed in works of the sort
in question, did then and do still very much exceed that amount.
