Title	19 March 1828 Smithers to William Longsdon at Messrs Leech and Harrison, Liverpool. Saw Wager few days since who told writer that they had concluded not to sell anymore land at present but to hold it for another year; therefore opportunity of acting for self. Clearly aware cannot make any title without releases from legacies and Wager disclaimed any intention of indemnifying generally though might in Wyatt's purchase. Must be driven to sell sooner or later may be no occasion to take proceedings. Judge for self after seeing them. Been to Liverpool; writer's father not expected to survive many days. Saw Mr Harrison and left with him a bond for £499 - and when writer goes up again - probably next week will leave with him a note for £201 - varied amounts to save something on stamps. Mr Ashby been from home, nothing settled about farms. One of William's ewes has produced two lambs.
