Letters from John Wier and R. Graham to Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington

In these two letters the agents of Lord Burlington inform him of business whilst he is abroad. They write concerning the bills and debts they are paying on behalf of Lord Burlington. They also mention Drews Farm and having found a good Protestant pay master to take it on as well as settling the bills for the carpentry and masonry works.

A month later they write again with news of more bills for rents and fines and one from Mr Wailes. They inform him of what they have paid to Mr Cairues and Lord Burlington's sisters. They give more detail of the building work completed, the steeple at Chiswick and letting ground at Great Bushington. They add that Lord Burlington's mother has taken Mr Taylor's house on Pall Mall and the refusal of a tenant to pay the fine until he discovered the farm was to be let to someone else.
