Messrs Mulcaster, 							Farnacres 8 June 1787.



       We have rec[eive]d your Letter of yesterday with Mattw. Temperley’s 2 weeks coal accounts inclosed.

       Our weather here has been much the same as you express and yesterday the Hill Tops were covered white with Snow, which however almost immediately melted. 

       As the Gentlemen in the Neighbourhood of Langley Mill seem desirous of having cheap paint, you are desired to acquaint them that they may have Fume at 8s/6d per cwt or 1s/1d per stone for any Quantity under 1 cwt but don’t sell less than 1 stone, and you are also desired to charge Mr Hall at that rate for what he has got. We are

       Yours etc., W & T
