Title
Copy letter from John H. G. Oglander, Nunwell, Brading, I.W., to Rev. W. H. Richards [Vicar of St. Helens]
Date
11 April 1898
Description

"I have long heard complaints that the fabric of St. Peters Chapel, Sea View is neglected and I have noticed that the ground to the south, which the lease provides should be kept as an ornamental shrubbery is planted as allotment land and the railings much broken. Of course the lessees are the persons responsible to me for observing the covenants, but as you are I believe in occupation by arrangement with them, I do not wish to do anything without informing you and I now write to tell you I have instructed Mr. Fardell no longer to give any indulgence with regard to payment of rent or neglect of other covenants. At the same time I am willing now to devote any rent recovered to a fund for the benefit of the church in Sea View in the event of a separate ecclesiastical district being formed there.

P.S. I shall be very glad if you show this letter to your churchwardens"
