From John R Denyer
To J. Lane Esq
17 Aldermanbury, London
Company acted wisely not entertaining complaints of Mr Hamlyn, or rather Mr Parker.
Not acquainted with Mr Cresswell’s or Mr Jones’s reports on experiments at Siddington which place me in awkward position.
Regarding need for further supply of water – make present means as efficient as possible. Dispute amongst Committee members respecting how to make up deficiency in water commensurate with trade on Canal.
Mudding of Canal before Spring out of the question, unless when stopped for frost. Making deposit of bricks, etc to repair some of defective parts of Tunnel arching when possible.
