Mr. Dickinson Coalcleugh



Dr. Sr.

       I recd. yours of the 13 yesterday & think you are right in not letting the Carriers keep so near the Washers for I do suppose that is a great means of their deceiving you – you mistake me when you suppose that I should be against your letting any Carriers have Ore that assist you any how in getting Coals, Wood &c to the Mines – all that I ment was not to act on any new Carriers when the Carriage were so poor - & am sorry that you should think that I would hinder either you or Mr. Crawhall f’m letting any Person that brings you anything to your Houses fm having a Catch of Ore.   I beg you’ll let Thos. Bell R.G. have a catch or two in the Week & am

       Yrs. IH Jr
