Chaudhri, R. M. 1957-58

On headed notepaper: Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Board Room, Manchester. - Agrees that ''it can make no difference to the L & Y Co that our superintendent is made steward we should be rather glad that it is so if Edward Binstead [?] wished to continue in the Cos service I do not see any objection to it'.

24 Barrington Crescent, Brixton. - Has decided to distribute 'the 250 of the Observations in London that I have printed'. The enclosed observations [no longer present] are 'therefore complete'. Much neglect at present in the construction of flues; hopes his paper 'will have some good effect' and that people 'will begin to think of their own safety'.

Found Milnes' chimneys at Fryston 'very badly constructed. One of the chimneys runs under the landing place on the first floor'. Gave instructions to 'have it well attended to as Mr and Mrs Milnes were not at home'. 'Several chimneys in many of the residences of the nobility I found very dangerously constructed'; describes a fire at one property he visited.

Sharrow Moor, Sheffield. - Writes concerning his father-in-law Timothy Smith, now 88, who many years ago lived at Serlby Hall as footman to the Dowager Lady Galway; he was an 'especial favourite'. Milnes's father knew him well, and always treated him kindly; he gave him permission to reside rent-free in a small cottage at Bawtry '"as long as he lived"', which Smith did up to about ten days ago. However, he is compelled by poverty to leave the cottage, being now widowed, infirm and weak. The parish is not willing to incur the expense of a nurse, so 'he is offered the alternative of the Union Workhouse, or the stoppage of his trifling weekly pay'. His relations, 'although very poor' so have taken him to Sheffield to live with them. It is 'a sad blow to him to relinquish a favor so kindly bestowed upon him bu one whom he holds in such affectionate remembrance'; Smith asks Siddall to thank Houghton for allowing him to remain in possession of the cottage; he retains the key of the cottage, and Siddall asks Houghton to let him know how best to return it.

Brooks'. - Regrets that the course he has taken regarding 'the fault committed by [Milnes'] servant' has unintentionally given him annoyance. Called on Milnes at the request of 'the Committee of the Society which has undertaken the prosecution' to learn his view of the case; Milnes said he 'wished to take no part in it & even declined hearing what the Father & Mother of the girl who was assaulted had to say'; Raynham agreed with Milnes that the father 'would well be able to prosecute', on the father's unwillingness, the 'Society considered they ought to take up the case'. Is sure that if Milnes heard all the facts he would be 'as indignant as I am of the shameful conduct of your servant & would approve of a prosecution by the Society', but even so he regrets that 'even for a short time' he has offended Milnes; trusts Milnes will no longer consider that Raynham has done wrong regarding this matter.
