| Description | Busch’s objects strongly to the proposal that the alterations to the dies should be made by Phillp.
Soho, June 29th, 1809.
Respected Sir,
Mr. Küchler having been in Birmingham on the receipt of your Letter to him respecting the Dies, and being but this moment returned, I have only time to say, that has declined giving any answer on the subject ’till after Dinner.
He demanded to know by whom the alterations were be made; I told him, and truly, that my letter from Mr. Woodward inclosing that to him was silent on the subject.—He said he knew perfectly well that the alterations were to be made by Mr. Phillp, which was very disagreeable to him. This was all I could gather, for his utterance was choaked.—On Mr. Brown’s return from Dinner I shall consult him on the occasion and, if possible, procure the Dies in time for the Dog Coach this Evening.
As it is probable that Mr. Küchler may . . . to act rationally when his present ebullition subsides, it wou’d have been more grateful to my feelings to suppress what I have written; but, as time will not allow me to consider of any other mode of accounting to you for a delay in the execution of your urgent commands, the alternative is inevitable.
I am, Respected Sir, your obliged and obedient humble Servant,
Wm. Cheshire
M. Robinson Boulton,
