Title	4 October 1854 William Pidcock [William Longsdon's stockman] at Longstone, written by his wife, Sarah Pidcock to `My Dear Master Longsdon' reporting on welfare of Longsdon's cattle and sheep, thinks Turnips some 3 weeks too late - very small indeed. Pastures very bad all summer and they have very little editch [aftermath] and have been very badly off for water and is at present end. They have a good crop of corn. Afraid cabbage will not be good. With note to Miss Longsdon to give their kind regards to their dear Master, Mr Charles and they are overjoyed to hear from them. So kind of Mr Charles to drop a few lines and very glad to hear of their welfare and shall be very glad to hear of their dear Master's return soon. - forwarded `just as it is' by Miss Longsdon.
