Title20 December 1811
Father to John Longsdon. Just heard from William wanting remittances for accounts brought in - saying John has recommended the purchase of twist. He has brought 50 bundles at 2/2 and could get no more at that price. Cotton is flatter, thinks cotton more likely to keep its price than twist. Hopes John will be able to send William £200 in two bills - unwilling to ask George Morewood for more at present. Good opinion of new spinner but thinks Mr Finch does not see him altogether in the light he ought. E L acknowledges barrel of oysters which came fresh and good on Saturday evening.
