Afterwards, an entry must be made in the book inwards, as for foreign Vol. I, Ch. XI. goods imported, and the collector, customer, and comptroller having subscribed their names underneath the merchant's oath, the same will be directed to the surveyor and proper land-waiter, as a warrant for their delivery of the goods. It often happens, on account of the distance of time, the loss of papers or accounts, or some other casualties, that entry outwards cannot be procured; in that case, there cannot be any further proof than the oath of the merchant, which is made and taken as follows:

Warehoused at Goodwin's, Dockside.
