Letters from John Shickle, Jamaica, agent to John Pennant Infirm hand, most of the script being done by a clerk. Somewhat prosy, without incident, except a few references to trouble with the "negroes" Shickle was not so eloquent as the too-astute Fearon who became agent later, nor did he have the subject of abolition to pessimise over as did Ewart of Westmoreland plantation in the years 1807-1808 1772-1776
