12 Jan: 1850

Dear Sir,

I paid Gale’s ¹ Bill Phelps’ ², and Fortescue’s, but am waiting for M^r Briarsden’s Report as to Bank’s and the question about the fixing of Hazard’s Apparatus – I paid £300 to M^rs Talbot’s ³ Account at the Melksham Bank and will send you all the Bills immediately I have been able to settle with Banks ⁴.

I am dear Sir
your obliged Serv^t

West Awdry

Have you Hazard’s Estimate? Banks says it only includes the Smiths Work in fixing – and the Mason’s – Gale could not find the Estimate and thought you might have kept it –
