Title
Richard Lloyd to Thomas Gell -has been active in Gell's business and will give a full account by the middle of next week - has entertained the cook and mercer's man with a good dinner and gave them plentiful cups which wrought good effects and he discovered what he aimed at - the mercer's man knows Pratt, Reeves, Norden and Washington and has seen them often at Oxford, and has promised to write to the cook to let him know where their lodgings were and how long they were in Oxford - is confident of discovering much against Pratt for ranting against Parliament - has promised the mercer's man £10 for every one of the 4 whom he could could bring in as a delinquent - would have gone to Oxford himself but waited for money - wishes to wait on Gell this afternoon and wishes to make proposals about the new commotion in the Lords. 18 Jul
