Miscellaneous £277 8d External To discharge Balce. of Arrears Season 83/4 It is possible that "83/4", which has been squeezed in at the end of the entry, was a sloppy attempt to convey "1803/4" (as in another payment recorded this day, "Troward Mr. to complete Law Expences for Season 1803/4"). The £277 8d amount does not appear to be the balance of income and expenditure at the end of the 1783-84 or 1803-04 account books, nor does such a figure appear for any particular expense in either book, so it has been presumed that this entry covers a range of outstanding payments not recorded elsewhere.
