Sir

Sir Walter Blackett, who has taken a ride into Yorkshire for a few weeks, bid me write you that tho not well enough to write you himself about business Yet he would be very glad if you would favour me with a Line what progress is made in the Conveyances to L[or]d Tankerville, to Capt[ai]n Roddam & Mr Ilderton & to Mr Pringle of the parts they are to have of his Tithes in Ilderton parish. And also that you would be so good as let me know whether any thing is yet done about settling the Disputes concerning the part of Lucker Common left to be divided among the freeholders And also whether the disputes about the Tithe of Lucker Common are in any way of being adjusted; or if not, what you would advise to be further done towards bringing these matters to a proper Conclusion; which Sir Walter is very desirous of & which you are the best qualified for obtaining for him of any body I know.

I should be glad to know if you have the Abstract of the Title of Ord Estate with Mr Filmers opinion thereon   I am etc     HR
