SATURDAY 21st APRIL 1888

Morning - 9 to 10 with William at Major's Barn Colliery laying out new Kilns for Plant and Miller.

At 10 walked to Alton Station. Met Fielding and Forrestor there at 11.30 and took inventory for sale of quarry plant etc.

Then by quarries at Alton, visited Hodsons, Keelings and Fords quarries.

Then to Tithe Barn to see Joseph Byatt, wheelwright next Keelings regarding property sale and left card. He promised me sale if not sold privately.

Then to Alton Station to Froghall by 3:30 train and met mother at Kingsley and collecting rents.

Fielding tells me that the clay at Alton is suitable for encaustic quarries or any other purpose.
