To Mr Wilkie Ravensworth Castle May 7. 1742
Sir
In Answr. to your Letter of the 2d Inst we have wrote to Mr Andrew Scott that he is not to permit any person whatever to Winn Limestones at Scremerston without first having a Licence from him, to the End that a true Acct. may be taken of all such quantities as shall be won there. the price we have fix’d at Three pence per Fother since the first of May which Mr Strangways as well as all others must pay from that time, as well as damage of Ground to Ten[ant. We hope you and the rest Gent[lemen] will think this a reasonable Satisfaction, & are
Yours &c
Walton & Boag
A Robert Wilkie Esq of Ladythorn near Berwick left his will in 1760 so is possibly the recipient of this letter
