Francis Gwyn to Sir Charles Kemeys. Advises him to write to the Speaker of the House of Commons to make his excuses for not coming up, as it was believed they would not excuse many; he was sorry that he had so much reason for absence owing to the indisposition of Lady Kemeys; informs him that her brother Goodwin [Wharton?] had had a fit of apoplexy and was seriously ill.

Lady Mary Kemeys to Sir Charles Kemeys. The trial of the cause had been put off till 27 Feb.; wants to know if she should get a copy of a deed to have Mr Price's opinion on it; she was very short of money; she would send him an account of bills and a list of those in most urgent need of payment; details of clothes she had bought for her children and of alterations she had made to her coat; if his sisters wanted her to buy anything for Miss Mary she would do her best to please them, as far as her purse would allow.

Thomas Bassett to Sir Charles Kemeys. Reference to the need to save expenses; was always of the opinion that he got nothing by keeping husbandry, but some expenses necessary, if he kept house; wishes that he would resolve to have Keven Mably finished, settle there and let out the lands at Ruperra; miscellaneous estate matters; reference to an attempt by Col. Probert and Sir John Williams to oust George Richmond in favour of Probert's brother-in-law, Williams of Wissom.

Lady Mary Kemeys to Sir Charles Kemeys. The doctor had said that Jenny was as well as could be expected from one who had small pox so much, but could not say till the 9th or even 11th day whether the danger was over; she discounts Lloyd's report that Lady Thomas intended to appeal; yesterday, Richard Carne came from her with a proposal to accommodate their differences; she said that this was a strange time to suggest this, but, as she was so weary of litigation, she would send Sir Charles word of what they said; if he was willing, she would see Mr Price about it and get him and their other counsel to make an account of all that was demanded as their due both here and in Holland, with the just law charges, at which Mr Carne seemed well satisfied; Mr Price believed that it was only a design to defer the business longer, but he would discuss the matter with Mr Barber and let her know his opinion, about which she had not yet heard; she believes that he had seen Mr Edwards, who had satisfied him concerning the reasonableness of the security to be assigned by him for the children and also concerning the settlement to be made to him, about which she was well satisfied; for the estate was engaged to pay £3,000, yet he freely gave £4,500, so that he gave an additional £500 each to his brother and sisters, which they were to have as the estate would raise it, but subject to interest, which quite broke the estate; she advises Sir Charles to get a proper account of his liabilities and not be always paying a debt which could never be satisfied; she did not wish any differences to arise between him and them [his brother and sisters], but it was the only way to have an agreement which would hold for ever; the illness of Jenny had prevented her seeing her brother [Wharton], but he had told her previously that he had agreed to sell lands to pay all his debts, but she was trying to get him to turn over to her some tenants to pay her £400 pa for three years, forgoing the interest, as it was better to do that than to be without interest and principal so long; the land which by the deed Mr Edwards had drawn up to secure the children's money was left in trust, in case of her death, to her brother, but she had left a blank for Sir Charles to name whom he thought fit, which, by her consent, would be no relation of hers, 'for in trusting relations in things of that kind, one loses both friend and money'; her son Charles continued well, but if he or she got an infection she would rather it broke out in London; it was better to stay there till they saw what Lady Thomas's treaty would come to, or, if it falls off, to get the account ready to give in to the Master in Chancery; hopes he would not come up just yet, as they were in so much dis-order; Mr Morgan of Tredegar had written to say that he would have come to see her but he was afraid of the small pox; 'little' Morgan had come from Mr Price, who had sent for Mr Barber, but he refused to come; they wished that Sir Charles and Sir John Thomas should end the business themselves, but they would have nothing to do with Mr Price, but Morgan had insisted that Sir Charles would do nothing without Mr Price.

Lady Mary Kemeys to Sir Charles Kemeys. Reports good prospects of Jenny's recovery from small pox; she herself had suffered blood letting, which she thought might help to cure pain in her side; there were great hopes of finishing the Dutch business speedily; Mr Price thought that the treaty of which Sir John spoke would come to nothing, being merely designed to gain time, but it would cause no harm to draw up an account of their claims; she wished the litigation was at an end and would be glad to lose some hundreds to end it speedily; though Price was confident of a very good success, God knows who may live to see it; discusses the payment of debts.

William Springett to Sir Charles Kemeys. He was pleased that he had written a letter to his son in his own hand, which showed that his gout was much better; reference to the claim to property in Holland and the need to have an agent on the spot, but thought new agents not necessary, as he expected good news of the cause shortly; reports that the King would dissolve parliament if he did not have a suitable return to his kind message to the House of Commons; the postilion had requested an increase of wages to £4 pa; he was willing and did his work diligently.
