Title
18 March 1813
London. William Longsdon to Mother. Sent on John's letters immediately via Liverpool. That from Father will probably leave England tomorrow. William received one, and one sent by Saragossa has never arrived.
Hope will find source of much domestic comfort in dissolution of partnership with Mr Finch. Severance necessary to well doing of both. Has forgotten to let writer know about strawberries "Such important points must not be overlooked".
Has not forgotten to get book but as it is intended for Kate thought it only fair to wait till she wrote to him which he has asked her to do more than once.
Mrs WILLIAM delivered of a daughter on 1st February. Trade getting rather lucky which was a pleasant thing.
