Sir      I received the inclosed paper from Sir Wr Blackett, when abroad; but did not send it to you, expecting to see you before this: but as the Session is near I think you had best have it to make what use of you see occasion.                I am etc    HR

 P.S.  Please to advise me you have reced it.

I do hereby promise to keep in repair for seven Years Hexham Bridge, to be reckoned from the time it was finished, to which Bridge the County of Northumberland was so good as to subscribe One Thousand pounds.

          Wr Blackett
