DescriptionThey have a small boat which may suit M. R. Boulton’s purpose, but Mr. Hodgkinson says it cannot be spared till the repairs to the (Birmingham Canal) Company’s works, which were damaged by the late floods, are finished. Thinks that the boats of the neighbouring canal companies will be engaged in similar work. But Mr. Taylor, boat-builder, near the Glass House, Birmingham Heath, would be likely to assist in procuring a boat. (Dated at the Navigation Office.)
