Title
John Gell to Philip Gell - Edington and himself think Jessop the most proper person for the general direction of the work as he has answered for the quantity of water being sufficient for the canal and can make it good, besides his practice on many canals - B Outram and Jessop are his great friends - Rigaud is certainly a rogue - hopes Gell will shoot the Moor and thin the game - what a silly fellow Lord Melbourne is to have his branch [at Selston] left out. 13 Aug
