30 Nov 1756

Dr Sir

I herewith return you my West Kenton accts & desire you will charge 2s paid Mr Widdrington for the Affidavit. Mr Wilson has given me notice that he is to have half of the East Mart[inma]s rents agreable to what you mention id orderd by the Court, but I have received no copie of the Order, nor of the Ma[ste]rs report about the payment of the purchase money. I desire to know whether Mr Wilson is to receive the Qua[rte]rs rent himself, & I must make out my next Acct for the other Qua[rte]r only, or if it must be made out for the full half year. Pray let me know if my bill on Mr Cockburn is paid, that I may pay the money to the Relations of the Miners Sr. Walter raised for the Governm[en]t, I thank you for yo[u]r non-parreils & doubt not but they will prove good.   I am etc    JR
