He writes that the trustees and executors of Honeywell's estate are handing in 'the remainder of their account for work done since the delivery of the last account to May 20th 1840, in which they have not included the amount of Interest due on purchase of the Job Chariot'. They wish for speedy payment, 'in consequence of law proceedings being instituted by the Ex[ecut]or of another branch of the family', and offer to give up the interest, 'otherwise they will be compel'd to make good their claim for the whole amount which will be return'd to the Court of Chancery, where it will be out of their power to remit any portion thereof'.

1p., folio. Good, on lightly-aged paper, with slight staining to blank reverse. Fairly written out on a piece of Britannia laid paper. 'Lord Chamberlain's Office | 10th. November 1849. | The Lord Chamberlain thinks it right to draw the attention of the Manager of the Theatre Royal Covent Garden to The Queen's Proclamation of the 6th. Instant, in which Her Majesty, for the Reasons therein stated, earnestly exhorts that the Public Day of Thanksgiving, the 15th. Instant be reverently and devoutly observed'. Thanks were to be given 'for the disappearance of the dreadful cholera', and the clear implication of the Lord Chamberlain's communication is that the theatre should be shut on that day.
