| Title | Anne Longsdon to William Longsdon at L&H, Liverpool. Not heard anything respecting their affairs not seen any of the gentlemen except Mr Wager - as soon as anything decisive or satisfactory will immediately write to William hopes he will live here and have happiness which her husband possessed not.
Her Uncle is at Buxton for his health. Regrets exceedingly that they did not meet on friendly footing. Told William to think him hostile to him was quite a mistake but from peculiarly trying circumstances in which writer is left and false and disrespectful things he has heard from several quarters thinks it is particularly his duty to be alive and on the alert for her interest and her child's. Writer's uncle thinks there will not be a sufficiency for her and her child - though as William said there are different ideas of sufficiency. Should uncle's fears be realised, writer must make some exertion if God gives her help. If not, her brothers will again not doubt gladly contribute to the comfort of her and her dear child. Henry not well, her mother says it is nothing more than a little ailment and will be well in day or so. |
