Madam

I beg to request that you will address your bill for the annuity from the late Mrs. Cook's estate to Jno. L Bennett No. 3 Cross Street Finsbury London, instead of Fenchurch Street.

You will also remember that the income tax of 7 pence in the pound was deducted from the last half years dividend and will be from the present one, you must there fore from the present half year deduct one year's income tax, viz. annuity
Pound Shillings Pence
Half Year 12. 12. 0
Income Tax 1 Year 14 8
--------------------- 11. 17. 4

and in future while the tax continues 7 shillings & 4 pence from each half year.

You are no doubt aware that if your income does not amount to 150 Pounds per annum, this deduction will be returned to you by applying to the collector of your Parish.

I am Madam
your obedient Servant

Jno L Bennett
