I John Scott Asst [Assistant] Surveyor aforesaid do here by certify that upon
careful examination of the foregoing Rates and Duties I find they
duly amount in whole to the sum of Eighty two pounds and thirteen
shillings sterling; and that upon the 3rd day of March curt [current]. I delivered
into the Office of George Cranstoun Esq a full Duplicate of this
account which contained my Oath that the proceeding inhabitants
were duly Served with Requisitions of the dates for served and
that the amount is madeup from their several returns to
me or from the best information I could procure when
they failed to make such returns
John Scott
Edin [Edinburgh] March 1798
