To Mr Wm Robson at Wallington 						20th Oct 1759

Sir I have sent you out to day by the cart 8 box of Plate by Sir Walters order which I doubt not your care of securing from the French if ever they should pay you a visit at Wallington, which I think you need not be under any apprehension of,  Sir Walter wants all the small keys belonging to the house in London to be sent up imediately, He says Mrs Hepple can tell those that belonged to Lady Blackett but as she is now with you I am at a loss about them for I know none of them, if she cannot come in to morrow I must send up what keys I have  I send you great good news that Quebec is taken, on which I congratulate you  I am &c JR
