Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors. EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO. EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org). The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source. Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data. Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines. Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

THAT the Fourteen hundred thousand Pounds be Divided into One hundred and forty thousand Ten Pound Bills , ( Numbred from One to One hundred and forty thousand ) with an Interest of One Farthing a Day on every such Bill , from the 24th Iune , 1697. to be Paid sooner or later , as Chance shall determine the Course , but to be Cleared in one Year from that time . 2dly , That the said Bills may be disposed of to such Uses as the Money to be Raised by the Malt Duty is to be Paid out for . And that the Persons that are to receive such Money may be all equally satisfied at the same time they are so paid it , and may have such a Share of 4 per Cent. more , as Fortune shall give them . Let Fifty six thousand Pounds be Divided into Benefits , as herein after set down , and belong to such Numbers as they shall in the usual manner be Drawn for , on the 2●thof Iuly , 1697 , or sooner , if all the One hundred and forty thousand Ten Pound 〈…〉 disposed of . The Division thus :   l. To the first Number Drawn , besides the Benefit may come up with it 150 One Ticket of 1000 2 of each 500 l. 1000 3 of each 400 1200 4 of each 300 1200 6 of each 200 1200 51 of each 100 5100 103 of each 50 5150 130 of each 30 3900 400 of each 20 , and 8000 2800 of each 10 28000 3500   Besides their own 10 l. a piece , which will make every 20 l. a 30 l. and every 10 l. a 20 l. Prize .   The last Ticket Drawn , besides the Benefit may come up with it 100 Money 56000 Which 56000 l. so put into Benefits , as also every other 10 l. Bill with its Interest , to be Paid in Course out of such Money as shall be Paid and Received in Specie for the said Duty on Mault , before the 24th of Iune , 1698. as far as the same will Extend . And for Paying and Discharging the Benefits and Ten Pound Tickets with their Interest , that shall remain unpaid and unsatisfied , on the said 24th of Iune 1698. if it may be Enacted , That all the Money arising from all and every the Aids ( the 3s . Aid , and that comprised in the Act for making good the Deficiencies of Parliamentary Funds , and to be comprised in the Leather Act only except ) given , or to be given this Sessions ; and which shall come in and be paid after the 24th of Iune , 1698 : over and above what shall be employed for the paying off and discharging Exchequer Bills , shall be used and employed , for and towards paying the aforesaid Benefits and Bills . And That the said Benefits and Ten Pound Bills ( whilst any continue unpaid ) shall , from and after the said 24th of Iune , 1698. be taken and received in all such Aids so given this Sessions , except as before is excepted , for as long as the same shall continue ; and when so taken in any of the said Aids , to be immediately Cancell'd as the Exchequer Bills are Enacted to be . This will not Enterfeer with the Exchequer Bills , it obstructs no Appropriation of any Revenue yet made , and will ensure the payment of such Benefits and Ten Pound Bills ( 't is believed ) to a full Satisfaction . And that all Persons concerned , may be fully assured of their being equally dealt with ; and that they shall be paid in such Course as their Fortune allots , before the general Drawing begins , 140 Tickets Numbred from 1 to 140 , signifying the First , Second and Third ( and so to 140 ) thousand , shall be put and well mixt in a Glass , and thence Drawn , and such Number as comes first ( and so successively ) out , shall intitle the Owner of the Benefit or Ten Pound Bill , comprised in such 1000 , to be first paid off and cleared . And if the Security and Course of Payment be settled as above is exprest , it is not to be doubted , but that 't will presently answer the full 1400000 l. ( as before is Proposed ) to content . Now if the Publick Good does require the bringing in of Plate and old Money to be Coined , for encreasing the Specie ; and that 40 or 50000 of such 10 l. Bills , may be disposed of for New Mill'd Money , or Hammer'd Silver Money or Plate , with the Hall Mark upon it , or otherwise Sterling , at six Shillings the Ounce , it will in all probability soon bring in such 4 or 500000 l. and please those that so part with their Silver . This to be Proposed and Approved of at the Committee for the Malt Bill , or not to be done at all . April 3d. 1697. Tho. Neale .
