14 Essex Street, Strand. - Is sorry that Milnes is suffering from gout. Has seen Mr Gibson's managing clerk and learns from him the writ has been issued at the suggestion of the solicitor [William Wagstaff] of Sir Morton Peto and Mr Brassey in order to have a contribution made and to get rid of all liabilities they are under regards the Whittington Club and that there is interest due on the bond from 7 Apr. 1859.

Expects the bill for constructing a railway through Madeley will be before a committee of the House of Lords in a few days, but fears Milnes will not be well enough to give evidence against it.

Will wait to hear from Milnes before he completes the exchange of deeds with Lord Galway.

14, Essex St, Strand. - Has found the letter of 19 Feb. 1869 accepting the terms proposed by Lord Houghton by which he is to 'hold the room at the back of your House till Lady Day 1870'; Houghton must be sure to end the tenancy by that date, or it will continue for another year.
