The Close of 1¼ One you say lays detached which the
<

</
lb

Canal would pass thro; & is held by Copy of Court to Miss Hewitts
<
lb

</
lb

& that you apprehend the whole of the said Close in Carried sayth
<
lb

</

to be purchased by the Canal County. This Secures perfectly rea-
<

Value to the Hospital, Your will Cheerfore please to acquaint me
<

</

where the said Close is situate in the Map, that I may judge
<
lb

thereof, & you will oblige me by poenting out the desertion of
<
lb

</

the Canal, & the probable Advantages the Estate may desire from
<

</

it. Land worth 25. P Acre, I should hipe would be worth
<

</

30 years Purchase, & if the Mess Hewetts Interest is deducted, I
<
lb

</

think the Hospital ought to receive at least £25 or £30 P Ann
<

</

but as the Value Maturilly depends on West Situation, as well
