Friday 1st May 1835



      A stormy day - chiefly occupied in Office business.  Went over the accounts due for Wood with Mr Parkin giving him a List of debts to collect, writing to some parties myself, and enclosing to Mr Fenwick the accounts of long standing, due by persons who pay no attention to my Letters, requiring him to take proceedings against them.

      Fixed the Rent receipts in the following Order and prepared an Advertisement accordingly.  Shaw House - the 18th Instant; Haydon Bridge the 20th and 21st Instant.   Alston the 29th being the day after the Fair there.  At which time also the annual settlement of the Ore Accounts will take place.
