Dear Sir   

      I am sorry to Trouble you so soon from the Time you left me, but you will see by the inclosed from Mr Everest and Mr Jervis concerning Throckley Colliery Lease & Christopher Richardsons’s Release and as I do not know how soon you may chance to fall in with some of them I thought best to send it besides I shall be at Eslington for 3 or 4 Days from Sunday Morning.

      Christopher Richardson is a base fellow & throws this of Priorsdale in the way, he is to Release only to his Claim to the matter in Dispute which was to the Boundary of Lowhouse as Discribed in the Bill.   I am etc

      H. Boag
