R3/2879

Reads- Agree to omit Swansborough. I will see best millwright in London. Sorry anyone attributes retaining the people to fear, but must do what's right; it is however iniquitous of some men to turn their hands away, taking advantage of Duke's liberality; you, Tween & Bennett should see them & explain; if Duke's tenants, say conduct will be represented to his Grace, & (?) dismissed from farms, but do not threaten. The [Insurance] Offices have resolved to discontinue all insurance on farming stock on expiration of present policies. Unemployed at Eversholt. Sorry to hear of another fire.
