The Carpenters and Joiners of Alexandria, having long experienced a variety of difficulties by not having the prices of their work equitably established, and, conscious that their employers are frequently subject to impositions by not having their work finished in a workmanlike manner, having thought proper to arrange the different branches of their trade, with the prices of each annexed, established upon true and mathematical modes of measurement. They hope that it will have a tendency to preserve a good understanding amongst each other, and that their customers may be equally and justly charged by those whom they may employ to execute their work.
Well qualified measurers are appointed to give legal measure and value for the same. Should at any time, the work be not finished in a workmanlike manner, to give value accordingly to the best of their judgment, and who will attest the same if required.
