File 2879. - Water Lloyd from Llanvair, to Nicholas Williams, ESQ., at Rhydodwyn,

The recipient's enclosed note of 1 May [No. 2878] the writer received this 19 May in Llanbeder, whither by great chance he came. The £40 the recipient was pleased to lay out, or take up for the writer's occasions in London at 'my' cousin Watt. Lloyd's request, the recipient has the writer's bond for, and shall be indemnified as soon as he can. But he protests this hard season; he can in this country procure no money. If the recipient pleases to make up that money due to the recipient - £100, the writer will mortgage to him any land he has in Carmarthenshire, and does more desire to satisfy him that he covets the money out of the writer's hands. He knows London bonds are to be paid without fraud or delay, 'I beleue ye out, was left out, of ye note: not purposely for, I scorne fraud,' and is much against his will forced upon delay. If the recipient takes his threatened legal course, he shall then better understand the recipient. But truly, worthy cousin, he is extremely willing to give him all content, and earnestly that for the recipient's own just satisfaction he (the recipient) will take land in mortgage upon fit terms, and if the writer can otherwise get money, he (the writer) shall readily tender it to him. Faithful cousin and servant.
