to have been refunded both by enclosure C, as well as Mr. Shelley himself, as such put to my debit (vide Enclosure. A) were not in his credit, as well as they are.
Mr. Shelley referring all information to his accounts, I myself mistrusting my own judgment, gave the accounts to a regular accountant, with the required papers he had officially drawn up on this subject, which did not elucidate the matter, and also permitted me the examination of the books. From these it appeared, that there were still £110-1 due to me by the Treasury, from my having paid twice the balance of income tax, ending with the quarter of March 1844, first at that time, as per entry in each book, and to write down his remarks upon them, and likewise per statement of income tax (vide extract No. 3).
I requested Mr. Miller Eops, the deputy Commissary General, a gentleman who for forty years has had to do with such matters, to examine the accounts and papers and favor me with his opinion, which he did in the memorandum.
As both these gentlemen could not discover the validity of Mr. Shelley's claim, I again applied to him for explanation, by order of His Excellency the Governor. This he did not afford, though he afterwards signed by the late Treasurer, and secondly on 21st February 1845 (vide enclosure 4.) paid, under protest, and the solemn promise on the part of the latter gentleman, not as a private individual but a public officer that it should be refunded to me. To remove all doubts, the book-keeper made a careful extract of the various items, as affected in the books (vide Extract 18), which it likewise forwarded, a copy to Mr. Shelley.
He did not take the slightest notice of it.
