page 327 note 1 …‥ Le droit d'entrée fixe et héréditaire sur les toiles hollandoises de lin et de chanvre importées en Irlande, est de quatre sous et deux tiers d'un sou sterling par aune, qui, en évaluant l'aune à deux-chalings et six sous sterling (ou trois livres tournois) forme un droit d'environ quinze pour cent de la valeur. II y a aussi des droits ultérieurs, posés annuellement par le Parlement, qui varient de temps en temps ; mais it n'est question que du premier droit fixe et héréditaire en réglant la quotité des droits à payer mutuellement sur les toiles de la France et de l'Irlande …‥ (Eden's declaration of 6 October 1786). After an attempt to reduce the duty to 12 per cent, the French government gave a declaration in accordance with the main contention.
