Wherein e∣speciall care is to be had, that neither the Husband, nor any one man alone, be entrusted with the making of those prouisions; but two at the least, to be appointed thereunto by the Deputie and Comitties in their Court: who shall also bring in their bils and accounts, to be examined and approued by the Comitties. The like care shall they haue at the returne of Ships from Vir∣ginia, for the goods belonging to the Companie, to be safely kept, and sould to the best aduantage, either in Court, or otherwise by the Courts direction. The ac∣counts of all which, shall be transmitted to the Audi∣tors: and the money remaining, returned to the Cash. The Deputie and Comitties shall also haue care of the Inuoices to be made for the prouisions sent to Vir∣ginia: and of the Certificats of the receipt to be thence returned: As likewise of the Inuoices of the goods sent from Virginia. All which shall be registred fairely in a booke.
