Title
18 October 1809
John Longsdon at Boston [United States of America] to his father, James Longsdon senior, saying that he has had no letters. He had a meeting with his father's friend, Mr Edmund Morewood. John's summary accounts with his father show a loss which would be difficult to avoid.
The price of produce has not fallen so low as expected in consequence of the Non-Intercourse Act. New Orleans Cotton is 16 cents. Naval stores could be well bought now, but the difficulty of getting them home prevents him buying.
