Title
27 February 1802
.... Whateley at London to James Longsdon at Longstone, Bakewell. He has waited on Ambrose and sent to him several times to settle Longsdon's and Mr Gardom's accounts. Ambrose has promised to do it in a few days and then Whateley will remit James' to Manchester. He encloses Lottery Ticket No 28601, costing £16.18s. Whateley comments that James stands a better chance of getting rich by playing Whist at guinea points than by paying for a piece of paper nearly 100% above true value. Subscribed "Your affectionate friend".
