| Description | Letters from John Rennie from 1797. John Rennie worked as a millwright and engineer in London, and he acted as Boulton & Watt’s London agent. He also travelled around the country – this bundle includes letters from Tavistock, Hungerford, Edinburgh and Leeds.
The letters are addressed to James Watt, James Watt Jr., Matthew Robinson Boulton and Boulton & Watt. Up until 1798, there are two series of Rennie’s letters; one to James Watt and in this the other partners, and the other of letters that were answered by John Southern. |
