TitleRev. William Alderson: "I fear this winter will produce disturbances thro' out the country; for trade being bad, the minds of the people much unsettled, and I fear provisions too high to be easily obtained by the lower orders, who will immediately without any sense of shame or feeling throw themselves upon the parish foe relief. This in many places cannot possibly be borne, and the result must necessarily be attended with no small degree of danger"; has managed to get in a fair amount of corn despite the weather, but the potato crop is very bad; the coming session of parliament should be eventful; has been asked to become a magistrate. 24 October
