TitleJames Wilkinson at Broomhall [Sheffield, Yorkshire] to his cousin Philip Gell - delighted for Gell to use his name in any profitable undertaking - it would not be in his power, if he were entirely satisfied of the advantage of the canal, to appropriate a sum sufficient to discharge the subscription which Gell has placed against his name - the scheme does not seem to want of pecuniary support - supposes the intended Act to allow them to let building leases at Broomhall, will meet with Gell's concurrence
