| Minutes of what passed | me to attend the Justices which I immediately complied with | |||
| there | -on my entering the Room the Chairman informed me that Mr | |||
| Errington (who was present) had represented to them the | ||||
| Impractibility of rebuilding Hexham Bridge with any Prospect | ||||
| of |
||||
| Covenant, that he was willing, if required, to pay any reasonable | ||||
| Sum to the County – But the Chairman sayed we cannot relieve Mr | ||||
| Errington without the Aid of Parliament, we think his Case a very | ||||
| Act of Parliament both to relieve Mr Errington & the County from the | ||||
| Burthen of rebuilding – when the Bill is drawn it is to be settled by | ||||
| Mr Wallace on Behalf of Mr Errington and by Mr Kenyon on Behalf | ||||
| of the County | ||||
