"It gives me a great deal of uneasiness to hear that those Pests of Society are still lurking in your Manor, and are endeavoring to take ev'ry possible means that lays in their power to sully & destroy your happiness, but I'm in great hopes that the schemes they are contriving will prove abortive." Walter and Robert Cambridge also discuss trading arrangements with their father. Docketed on verso.
