Hon[ou]r[e]d Sir	I was in hopes of making Weardale pay the 19th inst[an]t, but not being able to raise the Money must put it off till the beginning of May, ag[ain]st wch time I expect to get the Bank postbills turned into Money, as I hope to see you here about the middle of this month.  I wish you a good Journey into the North    and am Hon[ou]r[e]d Sr  Yrs etc     JR			

PS:  I think all parties are pretty easy about the Lamp bill
