Ledger of Edward Crisp's cash account with Lord Clive,

Although not endorsed like the other ledgers this volume would appear to form the ninth in the series since it records the balance of £103 15 11 as having been continued ‘from Cash Book No. 8.’ (i.e. the preceding volume H9/8).

The terminal date marks the day of Clive’s death.
