Handwritten schedules of documents associated with the townlands of Bellair, Skekanagher, Carraghdown, Clonshanny, Moate, Killeenboylegan and Curries in the Bellair Estate, with a surveyed measurements of Bellair, Skehana and Curraghdown.
Original incoming and copy outgoing letters relating to Ernest H Browne's management of the Bellair Estate. Matters referred to include: the sale of Mulock's holdings of four townlands in Westmeath (Moate, Killeenboylegan, Knockdominey [Knockdomny] and Ballynagarbry) to tenants under the Land Commission; list of tenants and particulars of interest in lieu of rent collectible by the Irish Land Commission; agreement with the Land Commission in 1911 to buy Mulock's estate; dispute with Midland Great Western Railway Company over disputed boundaries; schedule of 23 tenants in Westmeath sold to with name, townland, advance, annuity and rent recorded.
Includes letter from Browne to Mulock: "As I wrote to you yesterday I had a long and very wordy interview with your Knockdomini, Moate and other tenants in that district on Saturday. First of all they did not want to pay their rent, I told them before I would discuss anything about purchase the rents must be paid, so after a time a good many of them paid their rents and other asked for a little time. Having arranged the rent question I then began to talk to them upon the purchase question. Some of them were very hot about this and made strong remarks, but I think I made a few stronger, with the result that I at last got them to agree to purchase at 4/- & 6/-, &3 3⁄4 interest, Purchase Agreements to be dated as from the 1st November, the hanging gale to be forgiven where it exists and all rent paid up to the 1st May last. The second term men, Farrell & James Moran refused to buy, also King, but I have every reason to believe that these men will buy and also any of the Killenboylegans who can. I presume that I may now proceed with the sale and get any remaining lands that Bourchier has not yet mapped completed." (9 November 1908).
