Scotsbrig, Ecclefechan. - Spedding has been unwell, 'even dangerously so', but is now out of danger; has not heard directly from him, but from 'Marshall of Leeds, his neighbour in the North Country, and a sure hand'. Has been travelling in Derbyshire, Airedale, and Manchester before coming to Scotland; has seen the grave of Richard Arkwright and 'the earliest Cotton-Mill in the world'; could not find Brindley's baptismal register and birthplace, 'no man had ever heard of Brindley, his place knew him not'. At Manchester saw 'Ex-Quaker Bright the Member, and Bamford the Radical'
