Bretton 1st Oct 1798

Sir

      I had the honour of your letter which I would sooner have replied to had I not been on a tour in Scotland where your letter followed me.

      I am informed that some years ago Sir Edward Blackett had a promise from the late Sir Thomas Blackett of a Lease of Longage & Wall fell Colliery at the expiration of the Old Lease that Colliery being contiguous to his Estate & Lead Mine at Fallowfield which Promise on Application being made to me previous to the receipt of your letter I confirmed on which account I hope that you will excuse me for not complying with your request.

      I have the Honor to be 

      Sir Your Most Obedient Humble Servant

      T.R.B

Henry Errington Esq.
