Notes

Took money to pay 8 men £3 apiece but claims 4 of them deceived him so he gave the remaining 4 £5 each. The 4 men not paid were James Riches, 11 Griffin St ; Thomas Job, Kings Arms Alley ; John Hurren, Peter Street ; and possibly James Richards of Middle Street. All four took Conservative bribes. The remaining £4 he kept but £2 was spent on rope and other expenses.
