To Mr. Richd. Horne Ravensworth Castle Decemr. 16 th 1748
Sir
In answer to yours of the 6th Inst. we have drawn out an Account of the Gross and Net produce of the Derwentwater Estate for seven years to the 30th June 1747 which is as farr as we can at present carry it. You will observe we have distinguished what has been raised from the Lead Mines which being so very precarious we cannot pretend to say what they may in future years produce. The Land Rents we apprehend will not vary very much, and as the Repairs are pretty much over the Outgoings will not exceed what they have been latterly. You have the Account inclosed, and we have only to add, that we hope if the Government do anything for Charles Radcliff’s Son it will be in cash paid him at once without giving him any power over the Estate which we suppose is now a clear Estate, free from all Incumbrances. You will be pleased to Observe that the Reason why the Outgoings have been so high in the years 1741, 1742, 1743 & 1744 is owing to the great Repairs which were absolutely necessary & Expences in the Law which was unavoidable, Our Compliments attend your Family and we are
Sir Your most hble. Servts.
