" APPENDICES 269 losses. His salary, he said, with the perquisites of the governor's office, was worth from 1700 to 1800 a year ; his furniture he valued at 2400 to 2500, his books at 500 to 600; and his horses, two carriages, and the lands which he as governor had gr...anted to him- self and his children (10, 000 acres) were worth altogether 3500. The Treasury had been paying him his salary of 1000 since July, 1775, and a temporary pension of 500, but the board decided that as long as the salary was paid the allowance should cease.

In 1785, Martin reported that he had received only 840 of that amount (Audit Office Papers).
