Letter from Christopher Ormsby of Dublin, uncle, to Adam Ormsby, Ballinamore. In which he refers to "the inhabitants of London are pretty nearly in the same unsettled state the citizens of Dublin are in and likely to me while this unfortunate trial is going on". He is hoping to meet "with a purchaser for his property let to Government on so unexceptional a title I have from the Wide Street Commissioners ... which title is backed by several Acts of Parliament" enabling the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council "either to purchase or to rent all the houses and ground in the vicinity of the Castle to provide for the defence and security of the realm ...."
