Description:
Content: Folio 671. Letter from Edward Senior, [Assistant Poor Law Commissioner], to the Poor Law Commission. He reports that the Basford Poor Law Union Workhouse is still crowded or he would have recommended the relief given to Samuel Righley [Samuel Rigley], Framesmith, be disallowed. He recommends the guardians communicate with the Radford Poor Law Union and offer him the workhouse there. Further relief to Joseph Smith, agricultural labourer should be stopped and he and his family offered the workhouse. The same is true for William Shaw, assuming he is not personally incapacitated by the injury he received some years ago. Relief to the other paupers should be sanctioned. Annotated: sanction the relief on the grounds that the workhouse is still full. Paper Number: 12264/B/1841. See also Paper Number: 12131/B/1841. Poor Law Union Number 334.
