Asks for reconsideration of £2000 security required of melter Robert Mushet, whose wages are 'very moderate.' Now that all workmen are under jurisdiction of Mint Police, JH believes that dishonesty is less likely and that securities should be reduced.
Annual pension for G. F. G. Mathison was fixed by Chancellor of Exchequer [Charles Wood] at 'Fourteen Hundred Pounds (1200£).' JH and Henry Rich should submit formal report on this matter.
Did as JH wished with the papers. Is busy with magnetism and lines of force. Sends a couple of printings.
