relative to the Notional debt of Great

2.000 pounds and allowing each team SO

many and pressing engagements to pay money

means to do-so, is from collections, which he

made from small accounts, where they are numerous
lie hopes, therefore, that none of his

accounts arc too large to pay all at once. In

indebted to him, to come forward and pay up:
if they cannot pay all, pay what they enn, and
c!osc the balance by note To some of his cus.
