[NOTES ON DOCUMENT No. 102.] (1) See below for this statement. (*) William Cartlitch, junior. (3) Quicksilver, mercury. (1) This was probably Scattergood's share of the silver seized just before the Bonita's departure. (5) Peter Godfroy, son of Peter Godfrey senior, later supercargo of the Morrice.
(%) These goods consistod of taffeta, grograms and gambogo. For the silks Capt. Peter Jackson (Joseph Jackson's brother) agreed to chargo 5 per cent. freight and for the gambogo £10 per ton and 5 per cont. commission on the whole. If any Ostend shipe sailed to China in 1720, Jackson was to send out the not produce of the goods to be invested in gold. If no ships were despatched, the money was to be handed over to Trenchfield and Fenwick. Petor Jackson was also the bearer of presents (piece-goods, tea, teatables, "flowered papers" and dreasing boxes) to Scattergood's wife and family in Lincoln.
(1) The goods on the Wirtemberg were consigned to the supercargoes, William Pennicott and Leonard Cocke. They consisted of piece-goods only, on which freight and commission, ten per cont., was to be paid on the gross sales.
(8) Brocaded silk.
