Proceeded to Wooler - saw a Nurseryman who used to supply me with excellent goods.  His stock at present is very good & told him if he would deliver them at such a distance as Hartburngrainge, without charge, I would probably give him an order.   This he is to consider of.  Reached Milfield Hill late in the evening. 





Friday 19th



Went to Outchester, the tenant not being at home proceeded through the Farms of Spindleston & Glororum, at the latter place some new fences are in progress, & Mrs Thomson & her family are making considerable efforts to improve the condition of the Farm.  In the evening went to a friends house near Bamburgh to sleep.
