Title3 June 1802
Eliz. Longsdon at Little Longsdon to James Longsdon, junior, saying that she is glad to hear by John Bennet that he had a pleasant ride to Heath and found his brother well. She is surprised that his brother had not had his stockings nor Mr Ashridge his letter, and will send to Baslow today to inquire about the letter. She asks James why he did not order John Bennet to call on Swift on his return through Chesterfield and ask whether he had delivered the parcel which Joseph gave to his care to Thomas Elliot. She tells James to enquire of Thomas Elliot if it has been given to him.
She encloses 2 shirts, for he took everything else with him. His father and sisters are well. She rejoiced to see this fine rain, but is sorry to see the few lines which he wrote to his father on Sunday so carelessly written.
