Mr Simpson                               			Ravensworth Castle  July 14 th 1752



Sir     

      We have yours of the 11 th of July Inst.  with the Draught of a Lease of Lorbottle Tythes which we have this Post sent to the Board with a full Letter to hasten the Leases to us down together with a Copy of the Order on the dismission of Sir John Webb’s Bills and an Application for a renewal as you before desired.  We have by this Post full power to make the Agreement for the Fine so that you have hereby power to acquaint the Chapter the Fine of £192..10.- is agreed to and as we hope no alteration is made in the Leases there can now be no difficulty but we apprehend the Commissioners of the Hospital will expect the Leases in all aspects the same as those were to us.  We expect soon to have all the materials the Chapter want from us and then the whole may be soon finished and therefore ‘till that is done it seems unnecessary to send you the money however if that is proper you shall have it on notice

      We are Yours etc    W & B
