Robson, in part: "I spoke to you about my Free Press Idea. It is now in full swing at Hawich and Selkirk. Gala remains vacant and I want it there. C. J. Wilson has been in negotiation with Henderson of Hawich and the best terms we can make it is that he will publish in Gala, Melrose, Kelso, and Jedburgh an identical Border Free Press (giving us political control) if 6 guineas a week are guaranteed for 6 months, all advertisements &c to be deducted from this. We can't make better terms so I have agreed to guarantee 2 gs a week…Would you write to C. J. Wilson direct & tell him how far local funds could bear this. I don't think party money could possibly be better spent." In very fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Doyle's own hand.
