TitleLetter. Martin Stephens (Crane) to Matthew Boulton [Soho].
LevelItem
Date2 May 1783
DescriptionThe poor state of Trevaskus mine. They will find a new lode, but many of the adventurers are too poor to support it. Can Boulton help by setting aside all or part of the premium. Boulton’s leniency is likely to help Reskene mine. Offers a 1/30th share in Trevaskus to Boulton. [The letter is marked by Boulton "Q[uer]y at what time did it become poor. I think we should only take their case into consideration from the 1st of May".]
