| Description | (Press-copy of an original signed for Miss Boulton.) [2 pcs]
‘It did not occur to me when you call’d at Soho yesterday that Miss Boulton might possibly stand in need of something in your line & upon mentioning to her in the Evening your having been here she seemed disappointed at not being informed thereof before you left. However as her planting is completed for the present season Miss Boulton does not consider the circumstance of not seeing you of so much consequence as if the commencement of it; but if you could send her by first Waggon abt 300 Carb Stocks, strong as possible, she wou’d consider herself obliged. If they were to be reduced by cutting as short as those you …. Saw Mr Steel planting for Mr R. Boulton they might probably be sent in a large hamper packed with wet straw or hay, but this we leave to your judgment.’ |
