I {had} we are humbly of opinion that such security as is sufficeint for \{illeg}|de|fraying/ the price of the Tin & \of/ this ship in case the same should be lost at sea, may be sufficient for raising ready money \upon interest/. And that if the Petitioner pleases to pay ready money for 400 or 450 Tunns of Tin & for to {bare} a ship for exporting it.\export it at his own charge/ & her Ma^ty should allow him all the advantage of the adventure; \& for his further encouragem^t/ & in consideration of his paying ready money for so much tin at once, \should also/ abate him 1|2|^s {illeg} per C in the price.
