Chippenham

4 April 1846

Dear Sir,

M^r Goldney has been from home, so that I co^d not see him till yesterday. He objects to limiting the Costs of making out the title &^c to £20· but is willing to leave the Amount, in case of difference of opinion between us, to any respectable Sol^r. M^r Fussell will not sell the whole Field at less than £900 – but is willing to sell the 3 acres at £500· but you will observe that this quantity will not cover the additional piece acquired for the proposed deviation of the Road – as soon as you return to Lacock I will do myself the pleasure of waiting on you, but I expect to be at Salisbury from Tuesday till Friday or Saturday next.

I am dear Sir Your obliged Serv^t

West Awdry.

H. F. Talbot Esq.
