| Description | Has been to Leeds to look into Matthew Murray’s proceedings. A Mr. Heptenstall may make a useful witness. Reid Irving & Co. are delaying their answer about P. McCandlish’s engine and payment for it. Ambrose Weston’s “blunders” over the summoning of witnesses for the Murray case – will have to leave the business in Manchester unfinished. Mr. Lodge’s engine works well, but he has many complaints against Clegg, the erector. James Watt Jr.’s plans to discharge Clegg. Current location of various erectors. The house of Surtees in Newcastle has stopped payments. Got sunstroke going to Leeds. |
