Title	8 February 1810 John Longsdon at London to his father, James Longsdon, senior, commenting the demand for goods in the Longsdon's market does not extend to these in any proportion. Shirting calicoes are wanted and he thinks he can find a channel to pay better than 12d [? per yard]. Mr Bickers will give a statement of prices he could obtain, and John will get one from his father's late agents. Heavy fustians are as always a heavy article. Mr Ward well situated in Aldermansbury. He will if possible clear Longsdon's account while John is in London. Messrs J and G Morewood have accepted a bill drawn in John's favour by Mr Edmund Morewood value £400 out of which he must remit to Messrs Thomas and George Gardom the amount of their consignment which is diminished. The bill comes due on 10 April. He will see them tomorrow with a statement of account. John has waited on Mr W Whately. He is taking a bed at Mr Ward's, and living on his friends. He had a letter from William yesterday showing much stronger marks of a man of business. He will send a clear account of stock remaining in Mr Ward's hands, and push off the remainder if possible, but such sales always entail losses.
