as followsIn Pursuant of an Order of Court the 1st. of<lb></lb>
June last This Comittee Examined the Samples of the Cloaths and Bedding for the Patients<lb></lb>
in Bethlem Hospital And on Reconsidering the same are of Opinion that the Cloth for the<lb></lb>
Mens Shirts & Womens Shifts is to a Narrow and that for the future they shou'd be made<lb></lb>
of a wider Cloth According to the Sample now laid before them and that instead of 3s.<lb></lb>
the Staward shall be allowed 3/6 for eachThey find the Sample of Mens Shoes<lb></lb>
very Slight and are of Opinion that for the the future they shou'd be made Stronger According<lb></lb>
to a Sample now Produced and that instead of 3/3 the Steward shall be Allowed 3/6<lb></lb>
a pairAnd as they do not find any thing else Improper The Trear & Several of<lb></lb>
the Comittee put their bals to the New Samples of Shirts Shifts & Mens Shoes and also<lb></lb>
to the rest of the Samples of Cloathing and Beading All which is Nevertheless Submitted<lb></lb>
