| Title | J G Barnes to Mary Brocksopp: I enclose the remaining halves of the bank notes; the tenants ask for a reduction of 15%, which would be £60 per annum in your income, in view of the losses by bad crops and the low price of corn; I have made them no promises; I need to know your views as soon as possible; they are good tenants and manage the land well; I do not know how Mrs Harrison can be distressed as she has upwards of £140 per annum.
