Did the weigher always pay the money every month ? Yes, he did it mostly. The rule was that the firm who kept the books, generally gave the weigher the money to give to the Inspector. The weigher went that month to the firm, who had charge of the matters, and got the money, and paid it to the Inspector.
Was it always the rame Inspector?

regularly every month ?
Well, it
