Sir

If the Commissioners of Greenwich Hospital want any further Information about the Title of the Tithes of Ilderton parish Mr Darwin of Greys Inn is the person whom I told you could Satisfy them.

As to the £20 which Sir Walter paid as the Hospitals Subscription to the reparation of Warden Church; he did it in Consequence of a conversation between him and Mr Burrel and him, upon a representation by Mr Laidman that the Hospitals Tenants were not taxed to some part of the Expence; But Sir Walter would not have mentioned this payment, if he had imagined any Difficulty would have attended his doing so, and I find he will be as well pleased if there is an End of it, without further trouble to any body. P.S. I shall, I hope, see you to morrow upon ’Change about the Franks. I am etc    HR
