Received the Boards Minutes - communicated with Messrs Bainbridge- Nairn, Ridley Hall etc on the various matters on which I received instructions.  Directed the Bankers to pay £5000 to the Credit of the Commissioners on the 10th Instant, & shall order a further payment by the end of the Month.  Gave Benson directions respecting the repair of some Roofs, for want of which the Buildings are sustaining injury.  Rode to Wooley, the tenant of which had not appeared at the Rent receipt, but did not find him at home - afterwards drew up Minutes of the conditions for a Lease of the Coal & Lime at Brokenheugh & Allerwash, to submit to Mr Forster the Colliery Receiver for his observation & correction.
