Portée et contenu
(It appears that William has already told his father that he wants to leave the house (presumably at Heworth Moor), possibly to enter school premises newly built: the landlord demands £60 to release him from his covenants as a tenant.) Father's response is that the £60 is rather exorbitant but 'you see the extent of your loss and have done therewith': suggest you offer £50; or make a condition that £50 or even less be payable in the event of the landlord being unable to let the property within a reasonable time. Proposed visit to Leeds next week to see his brother, William Hey (surgeon): local church difficulties prevent departure in Easter week. He is troubled with church accounts and difficult churchwardens. Visit planned for next Monday with Sam (could be his son or his nephew) and hopes William will show his Periwig at dinner on Wednesday. Feels ashamed of bothering his brother, as his only trouble is indigestion. The last extant letter from The Rev. S. Hey of Ockbrook.
