Title | Letter from John Wingfield at Wingfield Manor to Sir Philip Gell - has not yet spoken to the bell hanger about the charge of hanging Bakewell bells, as he is working in Burton Church - will be at Derby on Friday to buy 3 cwt or 4 cwt of metal for the bells, which with Gell's old guns and some tin will be sufficient - it would be best if the work on the new frame and around the old bells was going on in the meantime - if Gell will send over his coat of arms and the inscription, he will have it put on - with estimate of cost, 13 Jan 1718/19 |
