Hopes he will do what is best with the sum of money. Is most anxious he should have the letter.
Is pleased he asked his help in obtaining security, but could not offer more than £3,000 as his lands are heavily mortgaged.
Was pleased to receive JH's reply concerning the surety. His trip to London did him good. Curious JH should come under Sir George Grey. He has a mortgage on his property of £20,000. There is a society that will insure any sum of money.
