Sir    I am desired by Mr. Ald[erma]n Blackett of this Town to enquire of you whether  Mrs. Christian Laidman of Darlington is living or Dead  _  if she is Dead he desires you will inform yourself exactly the day of her Death & let him or me know it. Sir John Trevelyan allowed her an Annuity of £8 during her natural Life & if she died before the 24th March last we have some leave to think Sir John imposed upon.        I am etc   C[uthbert] Peart.
