May it please your Lordship

The Officers of the Mint being appointed by your Lordship to sell her Majesties Tin & cause the price thereof to be paid to a Receiver whom your Lordship shall appoint & who shall account annually for the same: if your Lordship, for lessening the number of Officers & making the business more expedite & less chargeable, shall think it for her Majesties service that the said Receiver be an Officer of the Mint, I am willing, as I am your Lordships Undertreasurer or Receiver for the business of the coynage, so by the assistance of my Deputy & Clerk to undertake the charge of receiving & accounting for the price of the Tin. And as your Lordship understands best what is fittest for her Majesties service so I make this offer with absolute submission to your Lordships great Wisdom, being

My Lord

Your
