From John R Denyer
To Mr Bath, Surveyor of Taxes
Cheltenham
Evidently an error with respect to Lechlade – the Coal trade at that place not having been in Company’s hands for several years. Neither do they pay anyone there as Agent or Clerk. What trifling tonnage arises there is received by Mr Shugas who does it gratis. Company may be liable but no one else acting for the Company. No wish to evade taxes but my duty to ensure Company not pay more than its due.
