TitleLetter from Sir Lawrence Dundas (Aske) to his wife (Hill Street, Berkley Square)
Description'I wrote my dearest life a long letter from Mr Fishers which I hope has come to your hands. I came here yesterday before dinnner, every thing in confusion tho' I must say Mrs Brown has done all that any person can do and a valuable servant she is, yet it is impossible to think the diffrence one finds in coming from Moor Park where you have every thing in such order to a place where things are not, but we must do the best we can. I wish you would send me a good writing table with a drawer to pull out such as the one I had at Kerse and that I had at Apprcourt for I have not the smallest thing to keep papers or money etc...and tell Porter to order me such another press for keeping papers as the one in Hill Street to be sent here when ready by Harry Foot when ready; he will send it to Stockton...we want almost every thing, a baker must be sent down for I am ashamed of our bread, grocerys and fine sugar we want much but Mrs Brown says you have sent all these and that they will be here Wednesday I wish they were come. I saw George Ross; he and his wife etc he tells me are to be here. I think I shall be gone to Cleveland.
Adieu my dearest. I ever am your
