Title19 Dec 1814
London. William Longsdon to Mother, John and writer very happy with general tendency of her letters. Information of late change in Pancras Lane would come as surprise - putting aside consideration due to Mr Forsyth's case congratulates her on prospect of seeing John finally remain an inhabitant of England - though knows she would not stand in his way if needed to seek a station abroad.
Glad she helps James get ready for his journey. They both willingly accede to her request to attend the sacrament on Christmas Day.
Mrs Thomas Whateley in straw again; does not know if boy or girl, but must call on Dr to congratulate him. Mr W Whateley has engaged John Longsdon but does not know details.
Addendum from John - changed plans, remain in London. Mr Morwood very friendly. Writer feels comfortable. William had cold. Losing patience with James' irresolution. Tell him to fix day.
