Title17 April 1813
London. William Longsdon to Father. As result of Father's letter of 13 have drawn on Habgoods 1 April at 3 months £202-2s7d - discounted by Mr Morewood - so encloses £200 in bank notes. Patterson and Smith will close account with £50 cash on Friday - which might not catch James at Longsdon. Should he direct letter to meet him at A Longsdon's in Manchester. Still at liberty to value for £300 at 2 months from 1 May.
Sorry spring stock so dear. Imagines £500 credit on Habgoods should be sufficient to meet demands at Lancaster fair.
Last 2 packs of goods are come to Habgoods. Sent all details of the last account with Patterson and Smith.
Two pieces of fustian which were at Mr Williams John C sent away - no precise account can be got of them now.
Desires F to let him know at what price Manchester warehouse is let. Expecting Malta accounts anyday.
