the Law in such case directs, And it appeared to them
that the dmands of the Said William Scotcher< no role > are
thirteen years ago, And that the Committee not Seeing

thirteen years ago, And that therefore the Committee

to be allowed & paid what he prayed by his petition,
This Court upon consideration had of the said Report
Doth agree thereto, And doth not think fit to make
any Order for paying to the Said William Stotcher< no role > the
money mentioned in his Said petition.
