Title	30 May 1812 Ralph Finch at Longsdon to John Longsdon. Arrived Thursday - news of Uncle Thomas and family much worse than was expected. Cannot learn of John's arrival from Ireland. Goods sent from Manchester to their order before writer left London to be delivered to Messrs Habgood, Evans and Brown unless John can dispose of them better - instruct them as to lowest prices can be sold at. Aware of difficulty of obtaining necessary advances under present bad trade. Sending a few packs to Poole, Stocks and Barker to divide risk. William wants to see writer at Manchester - go next Monday and return Wednesday with Father to John at Goatley. Father and two sons equal in folly if not in guilt - waiting for Mr Morewood's return from Liverpool in this matter. Agreeable to plan of William and Finch managing business on reduced scale - wishes it was in practice.
