Scope and content

Letter from Anne Ormsby, Knox Street, Sligo, aunt to Adam Ormsby, Ballinamore. "I am at a loss for words to express my gratitude to you for your punctuality in sending an allowance. I enclose a receipt for the note but keep the money for yourself - may every blessing attend you and all your family is and always was my constant prayers, my sight so bad and my hands so cold that I fear you can't read this vile scrawl. Love to Kitt and be assured I am your truely and affectionate aunt.". Included a copy of Adam's reply dated 13 March 1827 and addressed 13 Charlemont Street, Dublin, in which he thanks her "for your very kind remembrance of me in the sum of twelve pounds, fourteen shillings sterling which sum will be due to you the 1st April ... and I beg to state that as administrator of my late father's will that the paying you your annuity does not impose any trouble on me ... therefore do not consider myself deserving your very kind present ... and you will confer a particular favour to me by receiving the same sum from me ..."
