| Description | Written from London. The letter explains that Neilson has thought over the results of his discussion with Brunel and, although he is disappointed that the terms Brunel suggested will not lessen Neilson's financial losses, he is so eager to work with Brunel that he is agreeing to Brunel's terms. The letter reiterates the terms that Brunel suggested in terms of transferring the financial obligations against Fulton and Neilson to be set against the payments for the crank shaft being manufactured by the Lancefield Forge Co and that Neilson will see to the manufacture of a third attempt at the crank shaft at the Lancefield Forge Co and confirms the arrangements for who pays what to whom in the event of either a satisfactory casting or a third failure. |
