From John R Denyer
To John Hall
Steam Engine, Thames Head
You must contrive and make the shovels you have do until the Engine is again started. I have sent the planks. Mr Jones will tell you how I wish them to be fixed. I have sent the door frame and door for coal hole next your house for which you must make hooks and eyes and fastenings. I have been unable to find a grindstone sufficiently large to be used for other purposes as well as those of the Engine. Tow ordered but not received, tallow sent. It is all we have left of the cask. I do not wish to order more till another season.
