Received a Memorial from Michael Pigg who is an old Tenant of the Hospital, with a request that I wo’d forward it to the Commissioners. The statements it contained are true.  He is an industrious Man who has made a strong endeavour to get through the depressed times & is in my opinion deserving of some consideration.  Was engaged with various accounts in the Office & afterwards among the Workmen in different parts of the Estates.   Also with Mr Lee, the new Tenant of Dilston New Town, advising him as to his management.
