Title
No date
William Longsdon to James - Much obliged by late letters though they brought them unwelcome news. Father takes disingenuous view of his own proceedings. They do not forget James' farming plans. No news about America. Have bought James a box to raise instantaneous light with - dip match slightly in bottle - hold down vents keep whole apparatus dry and wipe off moisture from bottle neck once a week - charge 7/-.
Enquiry about bad note - person who gave it to James can be compelled to refund if he can swear it was faulty.
