  Detailed account of how all Brandshagen's legitimate claims were settled and refutation of the others. If he left any debts, his executors must pay them [MINT 19/3/245]

But it was not allowed him the Princes Warrant limiting that allowance to the time of his stay in Scotland upon the service of the Mint. He received therefore only 214^li And when I paid him the last part of this summ, which was Aug. 26 1717, he gave a receipt in full of all accounts.

The 6^li 18^s in the third Article should be 6^li 8^s, & this summ hath been already paid to D^r Brandshagen & I know of nothing more due to them from the Crown then what they have already received & given Receipts for in full of their accounts.
