Dr Sir,

   I have rec’d a line from Mr. Sparke informing me that the North Chimney at Allenheads Mill was blown down about 11 O’Clock this morning, he does not say what damage the Building has otherwise received, the Workmen are no worse, intend being there in the morning & get the Chimney covered in, or rebuilt.

   On the 12th will wait on you at Hexham for subsistence, when I shall be obliged to you for £300.

    I am Dr Sir  Yr Obt Servt I Hunter	

Dukesfd 5th Nov 98



To Jno E Blackett, Charlotte Sq, Newcastle
