To Mr Wm. Ward at Holbeck near Leeds

9 June 1758

Sr.

As matters are now nearly bro[ugh]t [to] a conclusion for the deeds to be sent into Yorkshire to be executed & Mr Widrington has drawn a proper security from Mr Fenwick to you for your rent charge I must desire you will send me a line by the return of the post where Mrs Fenwick was baptized; for as my son is a Comis[sione]r mention'd in the dedimus for her passing  a fine it is necessary he sh[oul]d be satisfied that she is of age. 

I also desire to know whe[the]r you have Mr Fenwicks grant of the £80 a y[ea]r rent charge in yo[u]r possession, or in whose custody it is, for it must be deiver'd up, when you convey & receive Mr Fenwicks assignm[en]t of  Sr.Wr. Blacketts & Mr Peareths bond.  I am etc   JR
