Dear Sir,
I have remitted £300 to Coutts & Co <2> for your Credit with the Bank of Scotland at Edinburgh & £100 to Messrs Mortlock at Cambridge – and have arranged to meet Briersden about cutting the Plantation at Nethermore <3> tomorrow – after which I will write again on that and on the other subjects mentioned in your note of the 28th inst. I believe the Church is almost ready for re-opening.
I am Dear Sir Your obliged
