TitleLetter from T. J. Phillips, Cotterstock [Northants] to the Duke of Manchester
DescriptionUndated. Glad to hear the Duke approves of his proposals. He would be quite willing to leave the management to Fitzwilliam "but there never was a Fitzwilliam who was not a bad man of business and I think our friend partrakes largely of the family failing." The current system leads to property being damaged by poachers and hounds wounded. He disagrees with Fitzwilliam's proposal to ask local farmers to watch the coverts for them but agrees a man is necessary at Barnwell Wold.
