John Harrison:
The machines are ready for collection. I will need a certificate from you that they're in good order.
Reverend Nevil Maskelyne:
I am not sure I'm a good judge of that, sir.
John Harrison:
For once I agree with you.
Reverend Nevil Maskelyne:
I can state that they appear to be in good order; I think that will suffice.
John Harrison:
I can state as a fact they're in perfect order.
Reverend Nevil Maskelyne:
That will not be necessary.
John Harrison:
And I will need it to be understood that when they left my property that was the case. And that you are entirely responsible for their safety from this moment on!
Reverend Nevil Maskelyne:
I accept that responsibility. Now what is their normal method of transport?
William Harrison:
Boat!
Reverend Nevil Maskelyne:
Do not bandy words with me, sir.
William Harrison:
I am serious. They should go to Greenwich by barge, not some old cart like a butcher'd carry a bag of bones in!
