I William Hogg Surveyor of Taxes Do hereby Certify that upon careful
Examination of the Foregoing Amount of Dutys on Wheel Carriage in the
County of Berwick I find they amount to Two Hundred & Forty one
Pounds ten shillings Sterling. And that upon the 1st Decr. 1786 [1 Dec 1785] I delivered to
Mr David Renton Collector of said County an Exact Duplicate which contained
my Oath that the Severall Different Inhabitants were served with Requisitions
of the foresaid duties, & that they were justly charged from the Returns
answers sent me & now in my possession.
William Hogg Surveyor
