Tue 29 Jan 1884
To S Rowles, barge owner
Frampton-on-Severn
Enclosing receipt for cheque amounting to £8 11s 10d in settlement of tonnage account for quarter ending Dec 1883. Also calling attention to your barge now lying at Eastington constantly breaking away from her moorings to the danger of traffic and our works. Had to be tied up this morning as had broken loose. Will hold you responsible for any damage caused by her and will have to charge you the men's time for looking after her.
