Title19 September 1827
Wra Longsdon at Manchester to Mrs Longsdon. Has written to her a few days ago but not able then to state particulars of account with brother. Balance due to William on 6 November next £73.18s.6d Told executors will not claim interest on £2000 until next year dating from father's death 6 November, but not to be charged with deduction for legacy duty in consideration of this and the £1000 which is agreed to be abandoned or of the £5000 whenever the other £4000 are settled.
Hopes she gets on comfortably in arranging distressing business in hand. Thinks and feels for her and Henry respecting him, not forgotten what passed a few evenings before left Longstone. Appearances induce unfavourable judgements of writer but trying to do what is just.
Leaves Manchester on 21st and Liverpool on 25th. Hopes to hear from her. Should like to know whether writer is likely to become tenant to house etc. or not. Sends Mr Smithers a power of attorney to act in Father's will in his absence. Love to Henry.
Details of account with William.
