Scope and content

  • Letter from Christopher Ormsby of Dublin to his brother Thomas Ormsby of Ballinamore, Co. Mayo, largely concerning business matters, court cases and family matters. He congratulates Thomas and Bess on their recovery from the fright of an electrical storm. He refers to the newspaper "
  • The Patriot" of Saturday night which reported a similar occurrence in "Monahon" (sic). He is pleased that Ann Phibbs is better but reports that Lizzy, daughter to Owen Phibbs is not well and Jenny and Sally "are now gone to see her". He writes that "Christopher is getting stout and strong if he would keep himself warm and free from damp, he would soon recover".
