Content: Folio 326. Draft letter from the Poor Law Commission to [F J Baring MP], transmitting a memorial [not included] addressed to His Majesty's Lords of the Treasury by the guardians of the Newport Pagnell Poor Law Union asking for an extension of the time for repayment of the loan advanced to them by the Exchequer Loan Commission and for a reduction in the rate of interest payable.
