Title	8 July 1811 Liverpool. J Harrison to John Longsdon. Received his of 6 July this morning. Small box returned to him by this evening's mail. Carriage hitherto put into E M's account under the idea that it would be sent by an American vessel - once contracted with a Captain to take it but he afterwards declined - so no charges whatever on it. Capt Morrison of the Elizabeth would have taken it but Mr E M's injuctions nothing on board but stone ballast made writer think proper not to send it. Respects to William Longsdon and will reply to his letters of 24 and 25 June when he returns to Manchester. Everything remarkably dull in Liverpool. Unless some change takes place soon does not see how they are going to find employment. John Leech is studying French and expects to see him something remarkably good, if to be a merchant he will be of the first class.
