Wed 2 May 1832
From John R Denyer
To C. Jones
Siddington
Particulars of work to be done during 3 weeks stoppage. As much of worst and most leaky parts of summit level. As much mudding where most required, new Lock Gates erected & repairs to others. Inform me what money you require for the period as the whole of my resources will be cut off while the work is about owing to the Stroud Canal being stopped.
Advisable to keep good supply of water to prevent complaints of shortage.
