It is fair, in considering the matter, to note that Lord Sheffield shows from the Custom House books a declared export, in 1783, of 22, 510 dozen of calves' skins, sent almost entirely to Scotland and Ireland. These, we are free to admit, were possibly used for the greater part in the manufacture of gloves. It is further asserted that " great frauds are committed in the entry of hides, and particularly of calves' skins outwards ; there is a duty on the export, and it is certain that the quantit
...y exported exceeds greatly the quantities entered in the Custom House books. " Still, allowing this illicit traffic to be equal to the legiti- mate trade, presuming that some of these skins were used for producing light leather articles and were wholly used up in glove-making, adding another like quantity to be made up into Irish gloves, and there yet remains a large balance to make up an average annual produce of a million skins, and equal difficulty in imagining the services of an " im- mense" number of persons to be required in collecting them.
