To Rich’d Horne Esqr.                                   		Ravensworth Castle October 25th  1754



Sir  

      As I have been for sometime abroad in the Derwentwater Estate, and have not yet got the Transaction of that Journey settled, I hope the Board will excuse me from laying before them this Post what has occur’d in relation to a dispute which seems unavoidable with Mr Allgood, who it is probable may represent his Case before this reaches your hands.  And should he do so, I beg the Board will be pleased to postpone giving him any answer till they hear from Mr Boag and me; which shall be in a post or two.  Mr Boag is now from home, busy upon the Division of Shildon Common.   I am For Mr Boag & Self

     Sir       Your most Obed’t Serv’t       Nichos. Walton
