| Description | Has received their letter enclosing Mr. Baily’s account of freight of coinage, 1806. The state in which Doughty & Co. left their affairs prevents him from investigating the matter, but he is sure of the validity of Baily’s claims, so asks them to pay the account and he will settle with them. Asks them to explain the £2 allowed them on 1 Dec. 1806. (Copy of an original dated at the Mint Office and signed for Matthew Boulton.) |
