TALBOT3750

Chippenham ¹

14 Nov: 1838

Dear Sir,

I send you a sketch of our Advertisement for your perusal: when you return it perhaps you will say in what London Paper you wish it to be inserted in addition to the Bath & Country Papers –

My father recommends your selling the Underwood as usual to Gale ² at a Valuation – as the Expences of a Sale by Auction wo^d probably exceed the difference in price which might be obtained by selling in smaller quantities – and it is desirable that it should be cut immediately – Unless therefore you direct to the contrary I will make an Arrangement with Gale –

I am Dear Sir
Your obliged Serv^t

West Awdry.
