Considering that the charge of receiving the money at the Exchequer to be paid by Mrs Weddal may amount to 20li & that the greatest part of the Bill is money advanced by Mr Weddal the interest of which may be recconed at 20li or over, & that Mr Weddal was a very good Prosecutor & is allowed no salary for the last    weeks.
NB. The 800 miles were but 600 & the 480 but 380. 1li & 5s to be deducted out of John Thompsons Account. 1li 4s may be added to the charge of the law suit, & 20li may be added for the charge at the Treasury & Exchequer of receiving the money due upon the bill, & 24li more interest upon money advanced.

NB. 200 miles may be abated out of the 800, & 100 out of the 480 which abatements come to 10li 10s. & 20li more might be abated out of the three last Articles. And the interest of the moneys advanced by Mr Weddal in her Majesties service amounts to these abatements. And if Mr Weddal pays the fees at the Exchequer & Treasury for receiving the moneys due upon this Bill it will amount to an abatement of above 20li more.
