I Robert Aiken Surveyor aforesaid Do hereby Certify that
upon careful Examination of the foregoing Rates and Duties I find that they

the Twelfth day of December Current delivered to Mr John
Watt Collector of the Said Taxes for said Burgh at his office an exact
duplicate of and duly examined and compared with the foregoing account
which contained my oath that notifications were delivered or left of the
dates foresaid and that the rates and Duties therein charged were just

no person liable to be charged was omitted.

Transcriber's notes
The month in which the survey was done is unclear.In the Proof section the part which states that Notifications were left, the word in brackets should probably be "rates" but definitely looks like "dates"
