Title	25 November 1811 Islington. John Longsdon to father. Thanking him for attentions to friend Wissman. Letter borne by Mr Morewood. Firm to be altered next year and own employ to be somewhat changed but finds self advancing and his situation a more important one. General health very good. Notes father has drawn £150 on R Gell - made remittances to William and meant to have sent Habgoods accounts. Sales for month tomorrow - but their book keeper has had an accident. £400 from 7/8 shirtings at 11d. Expects an advance. Cotton will not be under 15d - only fear father's great anxiety about business - by which health and happiness suffer. Sorry William had relapse - must be very careful this winter. Sunday three quires excellent letter paper to Finch and two quires for mother's and such as like this he writes on - not as good as expects, very low, 1/3 per quire. Hopes more fortunate in selling off stock of fat cattle. Wheat 5/- per quarter lower today.
