Letter from Edgar F Jenkins to John Hatfield Brooks. Re. Parsons.

27 Aug 1888

From: 1888 To: 1888

‘You have certainly landed me, & yourself, in the meshes of another net of the law! But we must try and get out as best we can. – Whilst the lease to old parsons is still subsisting (and I conclude that the property now sold is included in such lease) any sale which takes place must be made either subject to the terms with that lease, or there should be a surrender of the property proposed to be sold from the further covenants & conditions of that Lease…let me know whether Edward Parsons will continue to pay an apportioned rent to the estate of their father pending the remainder of the lease, or whether on the completion of your sale he expects to become the absolute owner in fee. I expect the latter alternative will be his intention, & this being so there must be a proper memo’ of surrender endorsed on the lease in respect of the 4 cottages…’
