To the R
May it Please Your Lordship
In a Report which We lately made to Your Lordship about filling the
Gravers place, We proposed Mr. Croker to be first Graver of the Mint, and Mr. Bull
the second and by reason that Mr Gabriel Le Clerc one of the ners
and nimble Artist was then in the Service of the Duke of Zell Wee humbly desired time
to Consider of a third person, but he having since obtained his Discharge from the Duke
of Zell, and being now at Liberty wee therefore most humbly Reccommend Him for his
Ability as a fitt person to be incerted in the patent for the place of Third Graver with
a Sallary of Eighty pounds nn
All which is most humbly submitted to Your Lordships great Wisdom
