Title
(2 sheets and covering note.) The Midland Branch through Bedford takes the line through Oakley that he expected, but at a lower level. "As it will all be a Cutting entirely through the Estate it will be very little seen, and not at all from the House." Land requirements at St Leonards: has a plan and statement from Mr Liddell, but his opinion on a site for the station is not quite the same as Robert Stephenson's - he is inclined more to Miss Gotobed's and Mr Pearse's field west of it, than to the Duke's land. Colds and fever around.
