Dear Sir

      I Reced yours of the 24th October last with your Rece[ipt]s which were wanting when I was at Keswick & John Pearson’s Rece[ip]ts which I had omitted signing the latter I have returned herein Inclosed to you signed by me.

      I am glad to hear you have let the Tolls so well to be sure what Charges you are at upon that Accot as I hope they will be moderate must be allowed you when we come to Keswick. You may let the Smith make a Beam for the Farmer of the Tolls if he can doe it for 8 or 9 shillings; but let it be as good as can be made for the money.
