To Mr Chris. Denton Grays Inn London 26 April 1757 Dr Sr Since my last I have rec[eiv]ed Mr Ellis's acct. for the y[ea]r 1756, in wch I observe an Article charged for some woody gro[un]d bought for the use of Hexham Tine Mils, wch he had omitted to charge in his accts for the y[ea]r 1755. this P[iec]e of Gro[un]d lays near Dilston park, is not let, but is reserved for a spring of wood for the use of the Mils solely & therefore ought to be charged to the trust Estate, as those in remainder will be most benefitted by it, so th[a]t I send you inclosed a certificate for that purpose; But if it sho[ul]d be too late or there sho[ul]d be any objection to it; it will pay Sir Walter in time sufficiently for principal and int[ere]st. The Lease & release are now in my hands. Mrs Harrison says she wrote you sometime ago about her £40 to wch she has rec[eiv]ed no ans[we]r. I think I advised you th[a]t I rec[eiv]ed of Mr Thos. hall the sum of £40 the 3rd March last & had placed it to your acct. If I did not, it was an Omission for wch I ask pardon. Sr.Wr. set forward yesterday afternoon & I hope will be in London before you receive this. I am etc JR
