Sir,

I have just now seen Mr M. Hewitson, who desired me to acquaint you that he would take 5,000 ps. Lead on the same conditions as Messrs Walker’s Maltby & Co. (Viz) ½ Refd. with the usual quantity of Slag Lead @ £14 ½ P For. to be paid for in Bills due in Six Months, also if you wish he will take 500 ps. Slag Lead at the same time.  There has been no enquiries for Lead or Litharge since you left home.

	I am Sir Your Most Obedient Hble Servt.

      Thomas Crawhall

If you don’t inclose Mr Hewitson an Order for the Lead, he will wait ‘till you return
