The Account is correct & balanced by the Remitance, which as
Maturity will be placed to your credit.

under when you wrote to me of us Ports before, Will Naped
to the Colliery Accounts I am Persuaded the Staternent I sent you to
Michmas last is right, & I have entered it in the Books up to
that Time In future I mean to enter the Account half yearly
but the Treasurer still wether the Monthly Accounts to be
regularly sent up, & then by a Comparison of the Monthly Accots.
with the half yearly Statement any Inaccuracies may be

Accounts as Lady Lady to any other Quarter, as the Coals sold on
Accot are cheerfly paid for in the preceding Quarter, by which you
are enabled to ascertain with more Exactness what the neat
Income of the Colliery may be extemated at than you can at
any other Period.
