Summington, July 8th, 1824
Dear Sir,
I received your note late this morning expecting the plans of [Rev’s] School. I had them drawn out for the Bishop & expected to have heard from R. W[ard] where they were to be sent. They are now locked up in my room & as I do not expect to return till the 19th they will not be in time for the Bishop to take with him. I will however send them to you & possibly you will be able to forward them in some [commencement] you may have with the Bishop. I hope to reply on Tuesday evening to Mr. Ward [?] and set off the next morning for Worthing.
I am, Dear sir,
Your very obedient servant,
Henry Hakewill
