Reads- The question of White (under-tenant to Higgins); I have written to withdraw my objection. Further questions about the Navigation. Perhaps the matter will die away; after snowstorm we had the first flood of any moment since the new gates were set down; they proved fully equal; cleared the meadows much sooner than in former times. My opinion of Smith is that he should give up the mill; if he went altogether it would be a gain; conduct disreputable, drunken habits. Will Bennett. Tomorrow's wood-sale at Chenies. Reference to Bedfordshire farmers' attitude to Peel or Lord Chandos.
