Ravensworth Castle Sept 7: 1739
To Mr Simpson at Penreth
Sir
The Common Runn of Bussiness we apprehend has been about Par, or we should have heard something of the Copy of our Grand Indenture, which the Directors Impatiently want a Sight of; if therefore the Common run is over, Pray send it with all possible Expedition to us Carefully, as the Board think it was not necessary to Spend so much time in the Copying of it.
As the Court at Keswick is to be holden the 11th and the 12th at Thornthwait we propose holding Alston Court before and therefore desire you will Appoint it to be held the Ninth when we will meet you, so as to goe with you to Keswick the Tenth. We Represented to the Board how usefulo you were in Settling the Fines and in return had their Order to make your Gratuity up to Five Guineas which shall be Done at Meeting. Our Complem[en]ts Attend Mrs Simpson and we are Sir
Your most Hble Serts.
