Dear M^r Talbot

I have been to see the deep Hole you have excavated. The ironstone seems richer and <heavier?> than any I have seen, but I should think the cost of bringing it to the surface would be considerably more than at the Seend Quarry, if it may be so called – I omitted the other day to say that the address of L^d Talbots Solicitor is

M^r Nicholson

4 Old Palace Gard.

Westm^r

in the event of your finding the Deed, & so being able to let him see it.

Y^rs vy truly

<M?> Gladstone
