To the
Statute of Winton
information is requisite with
regard to the stock
of instruments of
conveyance as
well as of warfare.

To the purpose of national defence instruments
of conveyance are of little less importance than
instruments of offence and arms and weapons.
To pursue and compleat and modern
adapt to the circumstances of modern times the
defence of which the foundation was laid in the Statute
of Winton (the Statute of the 13 Ed. 1.) to the "View
of Armour" i:e: to an acquaintances with the existing
stock of arms and implements of war, should
be added a an like acquaintance equally perfect
correct accurate and extensive with the existing stock of Beasts
of Draught, and Carriages of all sorts Beasts, Barges & others Water carriages
i:e: ships for inland as well as maritime conveyance
not excluded. For partly In this view provision has
already been made for obtaining information an acquaintance of some sort has already endeavoured
to be obtained with regard to the stock of Beasts
of burthen & draught as also of land carriage: as also
Boats and Barges: as well likewise though with
views principally if not exclusively financial, an
acquaintance with information with regard to the existing stock of Beasts of
the means of land conveyance, animate and inanimate,
Beasts of Draught and Burthen, and
carriages, much has therefore been done already been in this
important line of political science: much more
than what remains to be done: but still no
part of the business remains as yet undone: partly because
the stock information called for has been narrowed and cut
short by a variety of omissions and exceptions
because the means employed for securing obedience to
the call have not been always altogether so efficient so effectual or so well contrived
as could have been wished.
