the London Assurance Ct. have taken an Insurance for
7 years of £1500 on your farm buildings for which I
have paid them £22.1.-. This Sum you will please
to remit me immediately, as the Insurance belongs to the
Lessee, thebeforeHospital only for the Sake of Regularly
in the Insurances taking upon itself the Trouble of seeing
that they are done.

Turn the general Sentiments of the Treasurer I cannot
give you a Hope that he will taken to any Proposal
for the Hospital to lay sat Money in new or additional
buildings: the Tennis press upon us to hard to allow it, &
unless it was upon an Agrument for a new least, is there
was a Covenant to that Purpose, there sums no Ground
for asking it, unless the Tenant who is to receive the
Accommadation was to share in the expences of it.

I am Sir Etc.
