PS Mr Walton is now at London.

Dr Hugh Chamberlain or Chamberlen, an eminent London paediatrician (d.1726), acquired the proceeds of a mortgage for £3000 from Lady Mary Tudor Petre, a daughter of Edward Radcliffe, 4th Bt, in 1722. The income from this remained payable from the Derwentwater estate after its transfer to the Greenwich Hospital. The Hospital trustees were anxious to divest the estate of this and other Radcliffe encumbrances.
