Twickenham - GB has lately patented a contrivance for draught or traction of carriage ploughs: he expects a working model (2/3 of full size) to be announced by his engineer. The machine has ploughed and carried: 'I time the weight of the moving power in Agent (2 youths) up the steepest road in the neighbourhood'. WW may send any person 'to witness its working up hill [Highgate]'. GB gives a description of the machine including diagrams. He has 'been incessantly employed planning by inspecting the machine in its progress through the hands of country mechanics and now at a London factory'.
