Sir I do not see how you can well make the Mill pay, till at least that part of the Rookhope Lead, which the carriers undertook to bring quite through, is actually brought to Blaydon. The whole quantity of Rookhope Lead that is wanting is 1874 p[iece]s. So that if even we were to pile the 1000 p[iece]s that were to be taken from the carriers at Apperley ; still the r

Sir I received your Letter of the 3 [rd] inst[an]t ; and thank you for your punctuality about the Endorsements on Sir W[alte]rs Bond to Mr Fenwick and on his Assignm[en]t thereof to Mr Ward.

Sir Mr Fawcett has got the Writings of Mollersteads and will examine them and make an abstract of the Title as soon as possible. When that is done he will consider of the Draught for severing Whitley Chapel from the Curacy of Hexham; but he will want to see Mr Graham’s Appointm[en]t to that Curacy and copy of it and perhaps this may be more readily

Sir I find George Brown of Fenwick is very much in Debt upon Bonds and Notes; that his Estate is deeply mortgaged: and that his Creditors are growing very uneasy.

in Hexham
Sir Sir Walter Blackett told me he had seen Mr William Errington and that there was an End of the Affair about the Corfrods & that he has given you directions accordingly, so I thought it unnecessary to write after you have given the Six Bunches that were cut in Mr J[o]n[atho]n Erringtons Ground to his Agent Mr Bullock, as Sir Walter ordered; then you may sell the

London
Sir Sir Walter mentioned your taking either Mr Wilbrahams or Mr Duani’s opinion abo[u]t the Mines in Lislewood & over B[isho]pside; & therefore as you say Mr Wilbraham is so slow in giving his opinions you may take Mr Duani’s : unless you look upon Mr Beset as more experienced in these matters ; and then I dare say Sir Walter, who is now at Berwick, will approve of your applyi

Sir I do not think it would be right for Sir W[alte]r Blackett to satisfy the Owners of the Soil for damages to be done by any of his Lessees of Coalmines; because it may make such Lessees very careless of their Workings in that respect, & therefore unless <MaldCan> will take Hexham Fell Colliery liable to damages it had better

Sir You may close your Chr[ist]mas qua[rte]rs Acco[un]t as soon as you will, for I think it will be a better Way to include the Carriage of the Lead, that has lain in the Ways during the Winter, in March Acco[un]ts, & so to make the pay to the 31st March last.
It is with a good deal of satisfaction that I find you give so much attention to the Lead Carriage; for
