TitleWilliam Barker from Smyrna to Mr. Thomas Barker, Bakewell: a small balance due from William to estate of Thomas’s father should have been paid off out of William’s share of a mine; he requests Thomas to order him out of it a pair of pumps and a pair of boots from “my brother Robert clerk of Youlgreave”, and send them to Mr. William Tomlinson in London; asks news of relations and Bakewell, and sends news of his own children, and of a dangerous voyage to Egypt to do business on Commission, in the course of which he was nearly carried off by the “bloody flux”.
