So great a stock of Tin, wth what will be further raised in Cornwall, must of necessity beat down the price of Tin so low, that it weill after the end of the contract scarce sell for above 40£ per Tun, & be 12 or 16 years in selling. And the charge of warehouse room & Officers & Porters to sell it & rebate of interest till the money comes in must bebeing deducted, the Tin at ye will beremain scarce worth above 28 or 30£ per Tun to be sold all together at the end of the contract for ready money. At 30£ per Tonn the 9630 Tons will be worth 288900£. And this being deducted from the 512188£ will leave     6888 223288£ the Kings loss by the contract.
