STATUS: The clerk has matched the claim to its source register and named the missing record. The current rule remains in force at the Lower Market Hall beside the east stair.
RECORD: The market scale book and the merchants’ sealed delivery chits. This file counts 16 sacks weighed before the first bell; the prior count was 16.
DISPUTE: Merchants cite fewer sacks at the gate; carriers say several loads waited below the cliff lift overnight.
WHY IT MATTERS: The decision concerns whether the morning price rise reflects a smaller harvest or a bottleneck at the lift. The current count does not settle how the rule should allocate the cost.
NEXT: The market clerk will publish weights from the gate and the hall on the same day. The clerk has marked the file GRAIN-MARKET-06 for the next public review.
