Letter from W W Phillips to T J Hooper. Mr Griffiths of Cardiff advises the writer that the estate had recieved a dividend on Spiller's account. Has also seen the stamped guarantee from W R Matthews for Spiller & Co to supply Bixby with goods to the value of £100. Bixby's name does not appear at all on Spiller's books, it is all to Matthews' name. Writer supposes it had better be paid.

From: 1868 To: 1868

Reference to Mr Cartwright paying for his land, £2 should be added for seeds etc. There have been fearful rows during the election and 2 persons killed in Newport. Ruffians drove the police into one of the rooms in the Town Hall and pelted them with rubbish and filth. Every known 'blue' house had their windows smashed.
