of my own knowledge my direct information
over and above what is contained in
that letter. At the same time I am
not under any apprehension of your
experiencing any difficulty in the ascertaining
the point through some more authentic
channel. Mr White I suppose
is not at hand to be consulted to whom I gave the receipt and by whom I
suppose the money must have been received
from the Treasury, is, I suppose perhaps not at
hand to be consulted, otherwise I should
suppose it is to him you would naturally I suppose have addressed
yourself as in preference to me, Mr but unless it
Whitefor your unwillingness to give to any person unnecessary
trouble, Mr White I understand is no longer in Office
but perhaps his Clerks or some of them
may be continued under the Gentleman by
whom he has been succeeded. Mr Estcourt
(as I believe I mentioned before) as being the
Agent of the Noble Vendor of the Estate, was the
gentleman

gentleman in to whose hands the money I
suppose was paid. His apartment in the
Stamp Office was under the same roof with
yours: but he, I understand has for some
time quitted it

At the Treasury the transaction was
more or less known to three out of the four
Chief Clerks, viz. Mr Mitford, Mr Cotton
and Mr Ramas, with all of whom I had
more of less intercourse on the subject of
the £12,000: Mr Cotton I remember more
particularly. With the dates which you
have 10th 11th & 13th of Octr of 1799 I
(I mean to date of the conveyance) I can
not conceive that either any one of those
gentlemen, if applied to would find any
the least difficulty in furnishing you with
the information you desire — I mean the a "Copy
"of the Warrant, (I conclude a Treasury Warrant) and in which the money was
issued" — I write this at a distance from town, and spend thereby
at a distance from all my papers. But if I had them before me, I see no
prospect of being able to add any material to what is
in here. I have the honour to be Sir &c
