May it please yoryour LordpsLordships

In obedience to yoryour LordpsLordships Order of Reference (dated 3 Aug. & 12 Sept) upon the annexed Memorials of the General & Master of his MatiesMajesties Mint at Edinburgh, I humbly represent that by the Coynage Act wchwhich passed last Sessions of Parliament his MajtiesMajesties Signe Manual directed to the General 17 Novem. 1718, is become voyd. And a new one may be procured to the Master for putting in force the Indenture made between the late Queen Ann & the said Master untill a new Indenture shall be made. And that the summ of two thousand & one hundred pounds be imprest upon account to the said Master for the use & service of that Mint, as is desired. Which summ together with the moneys formerly imprest, I conceive sufficient for defraying all the charges of that Mint till Lady day last, & also for keeping five or six hundred pounds in his hands for defraying all the charge of coynage till more moneys shall be issued unto him.

All wchwhich is most humbly submitted to Yorour LordpsLordships

greate Wisdome
