| Title | 29 July 1814
London. William Longsdon to James Longsdon. Glad box safely delivered and contents on whole what James wished. As to waistcoat being copy of last fault not with newness £10 enclosed for Mr M will be credited in James account Pleased Father and James both without notes on the insolvent banks - writer was worried. See as much of Mr M as James can - lacks interest in farming.
James' general farming does not sound very successful but not particularly bad either. Beef remains high in London. Wishes Father had sold his corn - do not anticipate any advance to compensate him from risk. Account current enclosed. Will pay bootmaker if can get discount. Tailor must wait for James' next remittance. |
