Grosvenor Square. - Is sorry not to have ben at home when his correspondent called; would have been better able in person to explain why he cannot 'meet Mr [R. P.] Milnes' wishes in reference to an exchange of Lives, on the renewal of the Bawtry Leases'. Explains that a Bill introduced by the Archbishop of Canterbury is currently before Parliament which will prevent this, and since he is himself one of the Church Commissioners and gave his sanction to the Bill a few months ago, would 'not have felt at liberty from that time to treat for the exchange of a Life in the Bawtry, or any other of the Life Leases under the See'.
Endorsed in another hand, perhaps the recipient's: 'to be sent to Mr. Milnes. arrived quite well'.
