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.
