William Lowndes to the Customs Commissioners. I have read to my Lords your report of the 15th inst. on the petition of Laurence Victorin “wherein you say that as several ships entering out corn for Holland, Hamburg and other places may when they are at sea put themselves in the way of the Swedish privateers contrary to the intention of his Majesty's Proclamation against trading directly or indirectly with Sweden” you have prayed my Lords' directions for your guidance in those cases. My Lords direct you to send your Solicitor to take the opinion of the King's Counsel [the Attorney and Solicitor General and the King's Counsel learned in the law] what method may best be taken to prevent “their” indirect practices. Out Letters (General) XXII, p. 171.

Prefixing: representation from said Cracherode dated 17 Feb. 1716–17. In carrying on the several prosecutions I found it absolutely necessary for his Majesty's service that several witnesses who came from remote places to give evidence against the Rebel prisoners should be maintained here at the public charge till the trials came on, which I did without any particular orders [from the Treasury Lords] (the service not admitting of the delay of obtaining such orders) at the lowest rates I possibly could, having regard to their several degrees, professions &c. I've also maintained a number of Scotch prisoners who become witnesses for his Majesty, sometimes at 8d., sometimes at 12d. a day each man.
In the account of my predecessor, Mr. Borrett, for the year ending 15 Oct. 1714 some allowances were made him for the incident expenses of his Office allowed him upon oath for want of vouchers, viz. 26l. 17s. 6d. on orders of reference and 13l. 10s. 0d. for charge of extraordinary clerks, “of which expenses I have never kept any account, not knowing till very lately that such allowances had ever been made,” and therefore I cannot make oath on those heads either in this or my next account (which will determine 1 June next). But I pray the same allowance as made him, the business in my Office being every way very much increased beyond what it was in Mr. Borrett's time. |

None of the above are to permit any person to send private letters under cover to them but what they shall immediately send to the General Post Office to be taxed, and they shall not cover any man's letters other than their own: all in order to prevent the abuses which have been frequently practised by non-members endorsing on their letters the names of such as were Members and directing their letters to Members when such letters do not really belong to or concern the Members so addressed.
