This morning went to ye [the] Sal de Raison
or Hall of Justice - belonging to the
Town House w'ch [which] is 110 Paces long & 36 Wide -
each pace at least two feet.

At one end is a Stone Stool called
the Lapis Opprobii - In times past, whatev'r [whatever]
citizen, sat upon this with his Breeches down
& declared [for] 3 times publicly that he was
not able to pay his debts was acquitted
by an Act of Insolvency, so that he could not
be put in Prison for them - but for these
100 years past this Custom has been abo-
lished -

This Hall is full of paintings in
fresco - most of them very odd, but some
of them executed indifferently well

In the middle of ye [the] far end of this
Hall is a Monument erected to Titus Livy -
