Title
17 September 1757
Part of letter from A Longsdon at Worksop to James Longsdon at Longstone, directed to be left at Mr Bird's in Bakewell, addressed to "Dear Cousin", and subscribed "Your loving Aunt"; explaining that the letter is being sent by a man going to Monyash for Nancy Richardson who is on her way home from Nantwich; enclosing a letter from "Tomy" which he is ashamed to see and asking James in his reply to reprove Tomy for carelessness "and desire him to be grave, steddy and clean and not noisy or boisterous". Tomy is so fond of James that he will mind what he says. News of visiting friends and of a party going to Doncaster Races. Hopes to see "you young gentlemen" at Worksop Assemby.
