Tredegar November 18th 1839

Sir

At eleven O'clock this night

understanding that Thomas Bray was

about to leave this place I advised

with Mr Summers Harford and took

him into Custody I told the Pri-

soner he was charged with carrying

an unlawful Weapon, he said it was

a foolish job and could not help

it, it was only the handle of a

Mop Stick he took out of his Garden

and put a saucepan handle to the

end of it, a Man came and called

him and he was foolish enough to

go he went down Stow Hill with

them but he did nothing I thought

it best to send him pt Coach,

Tudalen 2:
in doing which I hope I shall

have met the approbation of the

Magistrates

I have the Honor

to remain

Sir

your obedient Servant
