John Romsey to Sir Charles Kemeys. Inviting him to dine,
William Springett to Sir Charles Kemeys. Reporting that Lady Kemeys, Master and Madam Jane's health were quite good; Charles Monmouth had been robbing churches in Wales; he wishes that Ruperra might be defended against him; the church, being so small, was much too crowded in the winter time. Badly dilapidated fragment.
Mary Kemeys to her brother, Sir Charles Kemeys. Sorry to hear that he was indisposed; she had heard that he had disabled himself by drinking too often, which was not good for either dropsy or gout; the pt bottle had not arrived; wishes any means might be found for the poor child's amendment; she was scarce to be trusted to go alone from one room to another, as she was so subject to fits; she was balked in the expectation of many fine things from her father when he was last in London, and he had not answered her letter; she had written about the allowance her sister expected he should give her, and about carrying the child to London to the lady who cures fits; my lady's expressions were so kind that Naney appealed to her as to whether the allowance she proposed, £100 a year, was unreasonable; they had consulted a sea surgeon, who had experience in curing fits, who had prescribed a medicine; urges him to send immediately a rent of £21 due to Mrs Grimes; Miss Mary presents her duty to Sir Charles and her mother, with love to her brother and sister; the writer and Naney send their service to 'my lady'.
J. Ffloyer to Sir Charles Kemeys. Thanks him for venison; he had just returned from the homage; he hopes that this court would finish matters, so as to give him a clear insight into the concerns of Sir Charles's tenants and the duties they owed him; the recovery of what was concealed or denied must be left to Sir Charles and the advice of better lawyers than himself.

Thomas Edwards to John Williams. Asking him to inform Sir Charles that he would apply the Dutch money towards Mr Colston's interest, which, when received, would not be above £120 clear, and there would now be half a year more due to Colston; he would be afraid to see him, but hoped to be able to pacify him till after Whitsun, when he would be at Cardiff for the audit; there was that month half a year's interest on £1,400 due to his, Edwards's son, which he expected to have, having had a 'changeable' election lately.
Edward Morgan to Sir Charles Kemeys. Mr Jenkins would be of the Grand Jury with Sir Charles at Cardiff; he would be of use to them if Sir Charles sent him a compliment.
Lady Jane Tynte to Edward Kemeys. Saying that there was nothing she or Sir Halswell would not do to secure her brother.
[Sir Charles Kemeys?] to 'my dear General'. Thanking him for kind enquiries after his late accident; he must not take violent exercise either on horseback or in a carriage; he was vastly flattered at his approbation of his regiment; no one could claim so much credit for it as Simmons. Unsigned.
