F. from which Book the outermost Ticket Signed by the Goldsmith shall be first cut , and given to the Person that so pays the Ten shillings for it ; the next , which will be just like the Tickets given out , is to be cut , and put into a strong Box , whence it is to be drawn ; and then the third , just the same with the other two , will remain still in the said Book , so that to whoever Chance gives a Ticket that entitles him to a Benefit , must bring or send the said Ticket to the place where the same shall be drawn , and there it must answer ( to prevent all mistakes ) the Ticket of the same number drawn , which will likewise answer that that 's left in the Book , and it so appearing to do , the Benefit to be forthwith delivered .
