To Mr Everest                        				Ravensworth Castle   Febry 14th   1758



Sir

      Since my last to you, I have looked over the Abstract of the Title Deeds of the Derwentwater Estates and find in the Abstract No. 27 A Grant of a Market & Fair to Thomas of Derwentwater, at his Manor of Keswick in Derwentwater Fell in Cumberland for ever, Dated 13th July 4 Edward 1st.; and as it is very probable the Tolls are Comprehended within this Grant you will be pleased to look into it and send Mr Simpson a Copy of it, if it is necessary.  I find we have a Copy of a Grant of Keswick fairs to Sir Edward Radcliff Baronet, the 3d of the Reign of King Charles, which no doubt you have a Copy of, as this we have, came to us from Mr Radley.  I have this Post sent a Copy of it to Mr Simpson, but suppose it will be of no Service in the present Case.  I am    

      Sir Your most humble Servt.

      Nichos. Walton
