Examiner of Gaugers Books Office,
loth January 1822.
Honored Sirs, I BEG leave to lay before you Three Accounts, with their Duplicates, of Spirits distilled in Iieland, as required by your Order; but I regret it is not in my power at all to make the Returns required, of the Prices of Irish Spirits in every three months for the last five years in Dublin, Cork, and Limerick, and how much the Prices exceed the Duty; neither am I aware how materials could be collected to make such a Return from.
For the same cause I cannot make the Statement required what the Excess of Price of Spirits in Ireland, calculated in Enghsh wine gallons, at seven per cent above proof, is over the Duty.
