Went to Hexham, Fourstones & Allerwash, having some matters to look after there, previous to letting the Farm and Mill.  Returned to dinner and proceeded in the evening to Newcastle on my way to Belford, having an advertizement of Mrs Routledges House at Haydon Bridge which she declines to take, & which I must try to find a tenant for. Waited upon Mr Batson, Assignee of Mr Alfred Hall to know why he had not attended to my application for payment of £32 on account of damage sustained by Mr Dickinson of Love Lady Shield from the working of Fletcheras Mine, for which Mr Dickinson looks to the Hospital.  Mr Batson seemed to have the impression that Mr Hall has himself found means of paying it, which however is not the case, & I of course declined being referred to Mr Hall, a bankrupt, & required him to make the settlement.
