File 2984. - Jas. Hamlyn from Clovelly Court, to [David] Thomas [at Edwinsford],

Mr. Williams has answered the most material parts of the recipient's letter of the 21st. With respect to Jenkin Morgan, he thinks £10 is sufficient for the ribbons, instead of the sum of £60 recommended to be paid (because Sir William Paxton did so). He concludes the £10 on Mrs. Jones's certificate is paid. Mr. Williams has determined not to mortgage. They have had no frost or snow, but abundance of rain lately. Mr. And Mrs. Williams are gone to join the Regiment, but are expected here in ten days or a fortnight. He is glad to hear that the little ones are well and warmly clothed for their snowy climate. He has an ugly pain in his right shoulder, whether rheumation or gout he cannot determine.
