TitleLetter. James Watt Jr. (Leeds) to M. R. Boulton (Soho)
LevelItem
Date18 June 1802
DescriptionHas learnt that one of John Hughes’ letters is from a Soho smith, Forster. Therefore had Hughes apprehended in order to get the letter and prove he was “seducing” Soho workers. Encloses Hughes’ drawings, letters and indentures. If he does not prove himself to be of age, Mr. Lane can charge him with absconding. Hughes has been unco-operative. It is not yet known that Mr. Halligan is privy to James Watt Jr.’s “operations”. They need to take strong measures against the miscreants.
