Title
20 May
John Longsdon to father. Writer closes subject in firm conviction that all happiness which this world can afford is most clearly within their reach. Nothing which he can do to promote father's and mother's ever withheld or done reluctantly.
Writer has applied to Habgoods for a few bills and he wrote to firm yesterday - J L & Co - prepared for any slackness which might take place in demand for shirtings. Not aware of any. They recommend F [Finch] to try article mentioned in letter to firm without diminution of his shirting weavers. Times bad or worse than ever but his business cannot take harm. Security is the first object and regular demand for a good article next. Writer will remit bills to Manchester direct and sending this evening £369
