Title
6 February 1816
Eyam. Thos Birds to James Longsdon, junior, Great Longsdon. Went to Chatsworth last week but Mr K not at home. Slipped on Friday when thaw began which has confined him to house. As writer has not heard about pigs, concludes James' friend has met with elsewhere. All yet on hand. Please ask James' Father to execute deed for house and writer will send for it on Saturday. Tenant at writer to mend roof - over £20 - will not bring him a farthing more. Wants him to do it himself and take lease which cannot do without deed. TL [Longsdon]'s annuity will be £15 the 25th next month which is since his last statement to James' Father being 1½ years.
