Sir/ I rec[iev]ed your Lre [Letter], & do not suppose you designed to prejudice the Farm you hold of Sir Thos Blackett; only you must be sensible that what you have done tends to the impovourishing of it, unless both you & Mr Hunter take proper care & look well after the management of your <subtenant>.

Hon[our]d Sir/ The present high price of coals in London is not owing to any continuance of the coal owners here.

Sir/ I have not heard anything from Mr Goulton about the Bond you sent me. I think they are much to blame to trifle away the opportunity they now have of getting the money. The surveyor tells me that the Alterations which <Messrs> Rinks> have made in Hedgeing your estate at Kenton, since the plans were done, render them entirely useless: and that there must be almost a new

Honourable Sir Your part of the partnership Pay bills which I received last Week, amounts to 2764.4.5 ½ ; and as the money for this Pay must be kept ready, to wait Mr. Bacon’s motions, I think it would not be advisable to pay the 600 for the purchase of Mollersteads out of the Residue of your present Cash, Lest these should be a want for nece
