Description

Letter signed [-]lus Salter, addressed from "The Court" to "your good Lordshippe", perhaps in error for the Dean and Chapter. The writer is not satisfied with the terms so far offered in connection with the renewal of a lease on an unspecified property. He claims to be "an ould servant to the King's Majestie". The letter is faded, dirty and torn (with some restoration); some text is missing and some illegible.
