Title
Early January 1814
John Longsdon to James reviving subject of conversation from Longsdon to Duke of York on January which James meant to introduce to Father at suitable opportunity. Convinced Father will not make will as he ought to do - talking of sending for Mr Bossley - rectitude of intention. William and writer have agreed to propose to James that if Father dies intestate the 3 of them should distribute estate as most conducive to mutual benefit and happiness of their sisters and mother, otherwise unprovided for. Does not envy him for inheriting most according to law of land. Rejoice that it comes to one who can protect his sisters especially if they fail to make their way in commercial world.
