committed in Recording them amongst which we beg leave to take
Notice of the following Viz:t William Simcock his Will in Liber.
B. T. N.o 2. 1756 a Whole Paragraph omitted George Robinson his
Will dated in 1696. in Lib:r N.o H: fol:o 195 altogether disagrees
in every bequest with the Original. Richard Collett his Will in Lib:r
N.o 1 fol:o 314, a transcribed Book which contains Wills from 1635
to 1674 and Appears to have been Examined by Sworn Examiners
Yet a Whole Paragraph omitted this we find by comparing the
Original with the Record and that there are but very few of the
Original Wills Recorded in this Book to be found in the Office.
Daniel Selby of Somerset County his Will we cannot find on
