a Remittance for the Bervick Estate Etc. to Michmas last amountg<lb></lb>
to £320.6.9 which is of come carried to your Credet. The<lb></lb>
Finances of the Hospital being low it is not very convenient<lb></lb>
for is to purchase Estate at this Time, nevertheless I am of<lb></lb>
Opinion that Mr. Alders farm is more Valuable to us than to any<lb></lb>
other Party, as from your Judecous observation it would completely<lb></lb>
give us a Road to the Searoluens, & en Consequence for the duplicated<lb></lb>
point at rest. But egerely £2200 or £2300 is too much money to<lb></lb>
give for a rent of £90 P Arm: but as the Purchase occures desirable<lb></lb>
Is till outimes as to the consideration of the Committee, & make<lb></lb>
further Enquiry this the Medicene of some Gentleman connected<lb></lb>
with Hall; it appearing an important duly attaching to my<lb></lb>
office to see that the Estates are properly lett (adhercy to prin-<lb></lb>

any honorary Contrast to have contained <obscured></obscured>
