Letter – J Burton to William Wilson – 10 Oct 1798
Dear Sir,
I have perused the decree of the Court of Exchr. In 1667 when Sr. Matthew Hall was Lord Chief Baron, as well as the Act of Parlt. of the following Year enabling the Bishop of Durham to grant Leases for three Lives, & from these Instruments I am clearly of Opinion that the Tithe of the Ore is to be set out for the Rector clean & well wash’d as soon as it is ready for the smelting Mill, & that it is not subject to any Deduction for the Bishop’s Ninth or to any oth

I have had a letter from Mr Donkin in answer to that I wrote to Mr H Errington (a copy of which I enclose you) I have acquainted him that your obtaining a Lease of Longage Colliery is for your own convenience and not for the purpose of accomodating the Mr Tulips, nor any other persons as uncandidly has been represented to Mr Errington; this I hope will satisfie Mr Errington; I have for some time past thought that Mr Tulip had not been so open, fair

And I am much surprised to hear what you say respecting Mr Tu

I yesterday received a letter from Mr Bell, a copy of which I enclose you for your consideration; as Mr H Errington & Mr Tulip know very well that you was desirous of having a lease of Longish Colliery mearly for your own convenience & that you had made application for that purpose, their interfering in the business is I think very unhandsom, & rather than you should succeed in obtaining a Lease Mr H Errington offers an advance of rent of £

I have received a letter this morning here from Mr Bell wherein he mentions, that Mr John Donkin agent for Mr Henry Errington had called upon him on the 22d inst. I had bid him 200£ a year for the Collieries (St. John Lee & St Oswald) on behalf of his Master, which he desired I might be made acquainted with. As you had wrote to Mr Bell to know when the Leases expired, I thought best to send you what offer had been made him. We shall return home

On my arrival in town last night I found the Dra[f]t of the Stanhope Inclosure Bill, with a Note from Mr Castle, requesting that it may be returned within 10 days to a fortnight from that time at the most. _I looked into the draft last night enough to convince me that I should do Injury to your L[ordshi]p’s Interests if I perused it at present; as there are objections which I could not help making at present, & which would embarrass the business

My Lord,
I accept very thankfully your <Correction>. I have struck out the word ‘desired’ in the 4th page. In the use of the word Philosophy I have a reference to the benefit derived from that System of Philosophical Experiments which Lord Bacon originally suggested; & in that view it is the only word that will give my meaning. All the same I feel the force of your L[ordshi]p’s observ[atio]n. _ The word has been horribly abused. _ Cannot I prev

I have considered a good deal about purchasing of the Land Tax, & should be glad to purchase mine both in Northumberland, & here. But I fear I shall find some difficulty in raising the money for there will be so much land brought into the Market that we shall not be able to find purchasers, could I raise the Money to buy stock, or could I get anyone to lend me some stock, I would immediately buy my land Tax.

Some days before he had seen Mr Tweddell of Threepwood who is a Landowner in Weardale and who seemed highly offended in not having been more consulted (as he seemed it) as to the division; he also declared that he would in every shape and Stage of the Business oppose it _ He has in many Inst
