Clue Read Witherspoon ans "founding father". Witherspoon was a founding father but where does read come in?

Time share under Peruvian king (darling). It looks like "incarceration" can anyone explain the wordplay?

[SpiderPig]

I can see peruvian king = Inca R
and share = ration

and Time = Incarceration

that leaves CE unexplained

[ulysses100]

doing time would be incarceration
share = ration
Peruvian = Inca
king = R
but where the "ce" comes from I do not know

[JUNKMAN]

Here's a very very unlikely explanation of the CE
Darling = Alastair Darling who is the Chancellor of the Exchequer = CE ????

Sounds good to me Junkman

As to the other clue - Witherspoon signed The Declaration of Independence - so his name can be read there ? maybe ?

Thanks everyone.One more I can't get, any help appreciated.

coin collection ?c?a?b?e

[SpiderPig]

I can only think of scrabble and scramble which fit. Neither seems to cover the " coins " bit.

Although I have heard loose change called scrabblers.

My PC was offline so late in replying. The answer is scramble - our Scottish wedding tradition.
