Wescot Littleton to the Revd. [John Burton, Fellow of Eton 1733-71]: hopes this letter will find the recipient, Sister Burton and Cousin Kitty returned to Mapledurham [Dr Burton married the widow of Edward Littleton, KS 1712/13, rector of Mapledurham, d.1733; Westcot Littleton may have been a non-Etonian brother or cousin of Edward Littleton]; wishes to know how the Monmouthshire purchases please him. He could get nothing abated of the £4 for the grey horse. He has retrieved the paper Burton left at Newport. He has heard something of interest about a fishery on the Usk belonging to the College. Some trees are ready for felling.
