- Folios 248-249. Letter from Thomas S Simkiss, District Auditor, Wolverhampton, [Staffordshire], to Mr Lumley [William Golden Lumley, Assistant Poor Law Commissioner], informing him of the amount due to Simkiss from the overseers of the Borough of Bewdley; he further explains that the certified balance was £57 16s 11¾d.

This was reported [27 June 1846] and acknowledged by the Poor Law Commission [2 July 1846] number 9095/B/1846. Annotation: Inform the auditor that they are not prepared to say he can now enforce the warrant. No application was made to the Poor Law Commission.
