Forwarded to the Secretary the Tenders received for Dilston New Town Farm with a report of the Character and circumstances of the parties, as far as I had been able to ascertain them.  Went to Hexham being Market day.  Received £56 from Mr Beaumonts Agent for Wood & paid in all my Cash to the Bank Agent.  Examined the stock of young Trees in the Nursery there to see what there was which would be suitable for planting on Dipton Fell,& at the other places which must now be proceeded with. Had conferences with parties respecting Allerwash Lime, the proceedings of the Railway through the Estates etc etc.  The market for Corn worse than ever.
