The writer's father sends word that he met Colonel Mostyn at Ruthin on Wednesday last; he says that Thomas is much engaged to the Colonel for his love for him. His father took half pound of Spanish tobacco for Captain Wray along with him, which the Colonel undertook safely to send him; he also delivered Thomas's shoes to Edge the carrier at his house, but forgot Thomas's wife's silver bodkin though he had it with him at Ruthin. The writer just now parted with Edward Jones who sets out tomorrow, by whom the Captain will receive 1 lb. of best Virginia to serve till the rest comes. Thomas Arthur wishes thomas to know that he has met with a special saddle at second hand, which he can sell him for 30 shillings with stirrups and girths or 25 shillings without; it is covered with velvet, has places for pistols and cost £3 new. |
