Supplement for the County of Lanark from the 5th of April 1796 [to] the 5th of April 1797 by Andrew Aitchison Surveyor

[I] Andrew Aitchison Surveyor Do certify that upon carefull examination
of the above rent and Duties i find they amount to the Sum of
One pound Sixteen Shillings Sterling, and that on this day I have
given to Archibald Hamilton Esqr. an exact duplicate of this Acct [Account]
which contained my Oath that the above Inhabitants were duly served
with Requisitions and that they we charged according to their returns
[and] to the best of my knowledge and belief that they were liable in said
duties Glasgow 6 March 1798. [signed] Andrew Aitchison

Transcriber's notes

On this supplemental page the surveyor unexpectedly uses an '8' to represent a half-shilling in the Geo. III column, entering £0.1.8 instead of the required £0.1.6 for the surcharge on 2 horses.

Swemie [?], my transcription for the residence of Martin Dalrymple, is very uncertain. The most similar place name in this parish seems to be Swinstie.
