Title	10 December 1818 John Longsdon to James Longsdon. Thanks for letter of 6th of this month. Sent fine fish 2¼ lbs at 4d with 2 quarts of cockles. Entered £20 bill in James account with Anthony and been to examine accounts with Peter. One between James and Peter checked - balance of £13.9s 6d will be paid to writer this afternoon or tomorrow. Peter seemed quite satisfied with James' changed arrangements about the cow. James' account with Anthony Peter thinks all right but can only examine the money Arms here which he says are right. The balance of Mrs Longsdon senior's account and the Makelea account he made no objection to, but could give no position until he came over and that he would bring accounts and agree with James about each. He said James had done all that was necessary in drawing them out. Writer has made copies and send herewith. Peter said the assessment about the enclosure belonged entirely to David - Mr George Morewood meant to write to James and leave his business entirely in his hands. Credit James £10 for money paid Mrs Gardam. Writer doubts not being able to pay James money he owes him as soon as James wants it. Obliged by James sending Joseph to Chesterfield and will enquire of G P & Co for the letter. James' crupper safe and shall come first chance. Peter doubts whether can come at Christmas. Will mention enclosure when writes to Father and recommend him to let James have all the new land on James paying the charges. Not yet heard of writer's trunk or any fresh letters from William. Mean to go to Liverpool tomorrow or Saturday. Have got a few consignments which will have a fair profit.
