Copy reply from St. Andrew Thornhagh to Mr. Wilson, secretary (?) to above Commissioners for Taxes; explains action taken as exor. of Sir Thos. Hewett in this affair "... laying before the propert officer such papers as I had in my custody on which I knew anything of relating to the transactions of Sir T.H. with the Crown ... ground to believe that Sir T.H. lodged most of his papers and vouchers in the hands of some clerks concerned in the revenue and particularly in the hands of one Mr. Wright late a deputy auditor who was pleased to refuse delivering them to me, and after more than 12 months trouble in following him he delivered to my agent such as he thought fit and is since dead as I am informed ... I am come to Town on purpose to receive my charge and to have a particular of all the sums Sir Thomas is supposed to have received for the Crown other than those above mentioned, to the end I may give the Commissioners all the satisfaction therein, which can be expected from me his executor".
