Title	8 Sept 1813 London. William Longsdon to mother. To be delivered by John Longsdon. Plague continues; dreadful devastation at Malta. Black stockings just what wanted. Tried to get what are called "French" but found them worse than what sent. Watch gone to be repaired and trust done in time for John to take back. Glad Mr Addison been with her. Look forward to a few partridges after John with her. James makes trifling slaughter - ascribe for charity's sake to impediments of standing corn. 14 Sept. John gone this evening to Newington Green. A letter has been received from Mr WHM on him leaving Malta and Mr M & he now discussing the Writer supposes Mr M's conduct friendly and flattering. Now trusts nothing to regret. Watch cleaned and hope well done. Read with interest of her plants being in flourishing state. Happy father enjoyed his rubbers so heartily with the Messrs M. Would like promised shirts with ruffles little wider than last and muslin some what finer.
