Mr. Motte Questioned by Mr. Justice Chambers.
I believe (beleive) the French Company have not been in possession (pofsefsion) of any Territory in India since the beginning of March 1781.
Mr. Charles Wilkins, Sworn.
Mr. Wilkins, swore to the like meaning of the several Passages (Pafsages) in the Libel as Mr. Motte had sworn to, and as was put on them by the Indictment.
He said he had read (re’d) the Paper before, and understood it, the first time he read (re’d) it exactly as he now does.
Cross Examined (Exd) by Mr. Fay.
Do not you think it possible (pofsible) others than the East India Co. may be meant by the word Employers?
