Suggests putting notice of new weighing machine into JH's general report on Mint.
Will present JH's report on Mint immediately. [Parliamentary printer] Hansard will be informed that JH is responsible for all corrections. Advises including two notices in report: that Mint refinery was leased to Anthony de Rothschild, and that Mastership is no longer a Parliamentary office.
Does not know how to reply to Robert Mushet's claim for compensation for loss of succession to G. F. G. Mathison's office. No such succession was ever granted before. Returns Mushet's letter.
Suggests form for announcing new character of Mastership of Mint in JH's report to Parliament. Let Chancellor of Exchequer [Charles Wood] approve it before JH inserts it into report.
Chancellor of Exchequer [Charles Wood] approved JH's report on Mint reform. CT noted some corrections. JH may make other corrections up to time report is read to Parliament.
Asks for JH's opinion on answering Benedetto Pistrucci's letter.
Chancellor of Exchequer [Charles Wood] approved JH's change to Mint report regarding office of Master. P.S.: Who authorized annual housing allowance of £300 for Master's residence?
Does Mint provide official housing for Master? If not, JH's annual housing allowance of £300 should be extra, and not deducted from JH's salary of £1500. Thanks for JH's hints on responding to Benedetto Pistrucci.
