At Hexham We received this day a proposal (No [space left]) from William Cooke & Jonathan Spark for the Coal in Alston Moor, which appearing to us as well as the Receivers of too extensive a nature, we do not recommend to be accepted, especially as it may interfere with the poor Inhabitants working Crow Coal, which is a great convenience to them.
