| Content Description | Reports that the delivery of goods to Lord Pelham has been sent and that Mr Cossen has sent a full account of it; mentions that Mr Dixon has had a long letter from Mr Banks giving an account of the opposition he met from Mr Farr, whose behaviour he thinks is worse than Mr Aslabie's; comments on Farr's actions to the tenants and the problems facing Harley over the rents.
Mentions that Banks writes that he is obliged to promise rent collectors that they will not be removed without just cause; Banks also writes that the Duchess [of Newcastle] is not able to break into Mr Bristowe's collection, except at Norton; is sorry that Farr has acted against Harley and his wife, and hopes that eventually the duchess will see that she should place her trust in her own child. |
