Hi
Article is in connection with the preceding Instruction and it is most important to the due collection and appropriation of the revenue of this new Colony that no exertion should be spared by the Auditor to see the Instructions it contains fully carried out by going to the several Offices of the Collectors and devoting a sufficient time, and by sending a clerk for the purpose also.
It is certainly not advisable that the several Collectors should have no other check upon their receipts and payments than the Auditor's computations and castings on receipt of their Quarterly accounts; but, the examination of their Day books after receipt of the Quarterly account will necessarily create delay in passing accounts, in some instances perhaps the succeeding Quarter, and at all times render it improbable that he could forward the Treasurer's account audited by the first Despatch after each Quarter. This, however, is, it appears, a matter of secondary importance compared with the evil which is likely to result from delay.
The districts of the Island will be made to contribute towards the Revenue which they do not, in any way, and by personal inspection and by acquaintance with the different rural Collectors now good.
