To Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal Co (W Jones)
Wolverhampton
James Smart will write to you re larch to be taken from Stroud to Chester. Also information required on toll on coal from Ashwood Basin to Stourport as Stroud & Cainscross Co-op are looking into trying Earl Dudley's coal. Stroud Society are not happy with Hawkins & Sons. I'm trying to keep the trade on the Canal. I have got the Cainscross Society to have some coal by water.
