P. Jones, Glanhafren, to ?,

Removal of Lord Powis from the lieutenancy of Shropshire. His enemies say his interest at court is sinking very fast. His son's hope of a commission. This morning signed the bill for inclosing Pool common. Objection to Green as tenant for the Castle Inn but writer thinks him suitable. Has had gout.

Thomas Worley to Mr. Dungan, Powis Castle,

Mr. Smitheman did not meet him at Myvod. Sends specimen of the ore of the trial in Halcetor. Little ore there but a good vein of brows 'span'. To meet Pryce Maurice at Melin y Greeg on Friday concerning Mrs. Edwards's affair.

Rob[er]t Langford to ?,

His father let him take a catalogue of a very good sale. Hopes he will let him undertake the Counting house. Preparations being made for a second expedition. The porter is rose today which has caused the public houses to be less frequented than usual. Obliged for information of Mr. Berbeck's family. Every time Mr. Herbert has been at court the King has addressed himself to him from which 'one' would imagine there was something on the anvil. Charles mounts guard at the Tower tomorrow morning early and he becomes his regimentals very well. The rector has succeeded in the business he went upon. Young Denny has had a fall from his horse. Mr. Herbert will soon be in Shropshire. Would like Mr. Dungan to send him an answer.

J[ohn] Paynter, Havod, to [the Earl of Powis],

Thanks for venison. Had news of his lordship by Mr. Johnes and Mr. Gwynne of Garth. His leg cured. Smedley, who had been remiss in his absence about the level and cottage, replaced by William Thomas. Mr. Townsend 's two sons dined at Havod. Matters settled between the latter and Ball. The lead merchants have hitherto combined to keep down the price of ore. Told by a friend from Flintshire that the merchant of that county will give £8 per ton for small and £9 for round ore and will buy as much as they can lay their hands upon. No proprietor of lead ore needs to delay the getting of it one moment.

Hen[ry] Hennings, Llangynog, to [Thomas] Dungan,

Received his and Ellis Jones's letter. David Davies given notice to quit his kiln. John Lewis of Blodwell admitted tenant in Michaelmas 1756. The branching roads which are designed to be taken into the bill to extend the turnpike roads in and about Oswestry. These will affect his lordship's tenants. Approved by Mr. Owen of Porkington. Kyffins meadow in Soughton and the lands in Blodwell held by William Mathews.

Thomas Worley to Mr. Dungan,

Will wait upon Mr. Tudor with the leases. Has sent terms of leases to Plowden and Potter. Will wait on Mr. Waring. Took possession of Mr. Wheeler's house, land and forge. Opposition to cutting down the rails at Llanfair from Rees Jones. Wants orders about John Bowen of Coch y Dwst in Radnorshire. Bidders for Cwm Breeth farm.

R. Ball, Cwmystwith, to Hugh Jones at Powis castle,

Wants the fiishing baskets to be left with John Lewis, Llanidloes. Likewise wants the Tack Note; if he had it some time ago he would have done a good deal before now as the miners at all the mines here have been idle for a long time. Still not a stroke struck at Logelace as it is reported they are about selling it. Mr Lewes was at Eskyrmwyn about a month ago, paying off all the men - work been done there on the ditches and level. Mr Lewes not very well pleased at the writer and Evan David Jenkin for their last proposal to Mr [John] Probert to carry on the mines at the old duty till a fresh company would take them. Trusts Mr Probert will not forget to do something for the writer and likewise let him have a bargain of the waste at Eskyrmwyn. Recommends himself as a weigher. Makes proposals for the Fair Chance mine.
