A copy; anything ■written from an original. Burrill says it means a copy, particularly, of a record. This has always been the import of the word, it rarely or never being applied to copies of other writings. While the report of an auditor of the treasury department of a balance due from a person accountable for public money is a guide to the comptroller of the treasury as to the amount to be sued for, it is not " a transcript " from the books of the treasury, such as is made by the act of March 3, 1797, evidence of the debt in an action against such person. United States v. Patterson, Gilp. 44.
