J G Barnes to Mary Brocksopp, 10 Oriel Place, Cheltenham: I send you a bank note for £100; please acknowledge receipt; I have arranged with Miss Walton about the books and desk; you ask if I think you are giving Miss Carel too much at £450 per annum; so much depends upon the style in which you live; it certainly seems high as you are so very moderate in your manner of living; I should be able to furnish you with an account of the size of your farms in a week or 10 days. 28 May 1834
