S Sanforth junior to (Barnes): it is necessary to do something regarding the field you bought of Heywood; I never fully understood the terms on which we were to have the field or how we were to be compensated for laying dry the ironstone; as you are now unlikely to get the stone yourself. I offer £50 clear plus the £300 you have already spent, or I will give up my share to you; I believe it will be very badly watered. 20 Oct 1800
