Title
Letter: H. Brandreth to R. Jacson. 'Before this arrives you will most
likely have been apprized through some other channel of the horrible
havock made on the school property ...' The writer is much afraid
lest the Lesley family find out that he was behind the appointment
of Taylor. Asks Jacson to conceal this. Mr. Charles Lesley, the
second son, 'who is a most artful young man' has been threatening.
'Now my Dear Sir neither your person or property are in any danger,
but I know several in this neighbourhood think otherwise as to
myself'. Please post next letters to Brandreth under cover to Mr.
Joseph Tween, Land Surveyor, Lewsey. 'Mr. Brandreth being somewhat
agitated at what is going forward .. has deputed Mrs. Brandreth
to write this letter for him ..', and it is being sent to London
under cover to be forwarded from there.
