| Title | 21 Oct 1815 Manchester. Anthony Longsdon to brother John Longsdon at Longston near Bakewell. Thanking for information about land for sale in Little Longstone. If it can't be got to pay more than 3-4% writer will decline purchasing any of it - but cannot foresee what may be done till after they have tried to sell it by auction. Provided James can purchase pt. of land for self which he thinks can turn to good account, writer will lend him some money agreeable to John's request, or if there is any land adjoining John's that he purchases and can't get his money in time, writer will lend it to him. John can pay writer back in year at time. |
