| Description | As Smith & Arnold usually receive Sir Thomas Gooch’s rent half-yearly, Cheshire supposed only a half-year’s rent was due; no entries have been made this year in M. Boulton’s Private books, as Cheshire has been fully engrossed in the Mint. Sends extra payment and awaits the results of their investigations into property tax.
