Scope and content
Letter from Christopher Ormsby of Dublin to his brother Thomas Ormsby of Ballinamore, Co. Mayo, largely concerning business, legal and family matters. He refers mainly to business matters. He also writes that "Mr. and Mrs. Willington (John and Sally) left town about three weeks ago and Sally's leg is quite well" and that she has had many visitors from her new neighbourhood. He also refers to "The accident the Duke of Dorset met, when his death put a final stop to her Majesties birthday being celebrated, which has been a very great loss to many shopkeepers in this city"; the arrival of Frank and Eliza Elwood "about ten days" ago "their son Tomy is a most promising child" as his intention is to let his house "furnished for 3-4-5 years and to entitle me to a yearly rent of three hundred guineas" and to get a "small house which will be better adapted to three in family" where he can "walk out in the pure air at my leisure to benefit my health".
