Disgrifiad | Would not have been silent so long except that what news they have comes from Ireland and most of it comes by Holyhead, "for a little puffe of wind drives Ellie Welsh into yt place". Entreats a favour of Owen which will be an act of kindness and charity to a poor gentleman and his family in Chester - a brother-in-law and 2 sisters of one Robert Pooley who is a commissery of the musters now in Ireland in the English army. They are now in as low a condition as they who have not a groat in the world. Pooley sent his brother-in-law (a Mr Molyneux) some money by one John Evans, a volunteer in Lord Devonshire's regiment and a gentleman of plentiful estate in Ireland. The money, however, has not reached Chester and now the writer understands that Evans is lying ill at Holyhead. Begs Owen and his friends to look after him and arrange to send the money to Molyneux |
