Having prepared in the Office every thing necessary for my business at Alston, I drove to Haydon Bridge, there to meet the Lessee of Stublick, to confer on some matters respecting the Colliery.  I gave Mr Hutchinson an offer of his house with half the Garden and field at a rent of £21 from May day next (his present rent is £15) which he accepted - making a similar offer to Mrs Routledge who however declined any participation of her accommodation, desiring to have the whole or none. I then proceeded to dine and sleep at Whitfield.
