| Title | 25 September 1812
London. William Longsdon to Mother. Just had letter of 11th. Reflections on post to and from Malta and few economical opportunities of sending letters - Will keep family informed of early information on shipping to Malta - even though Government forbid letters except carried on Government packet.
Appears Miss Morewood did not produce JL[Longsdon]'s portrait immediately on arrival in Derbyshire - much discussed here. [Cryptic paragraph possibly relating to John's attachment to Miss M which William expects to go no further.]
Note to Father on JB's buying policy, small stock and personal selection and demand for Longsdon shirtings. |
