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. It largely concentrates on his will, a duplicate of which he has sent to Thomas. He has directed that "this house in Gloucester St. to be disposed of". He also refers to building himself a "good house in Hollybrook Park where I have all kinds of offices" once he had some of his family provided for. "Since I quit business I find my health much better, indeed I seldom now chiefly owing to my constant visits to Hollybrook (daily) have a headache, which I very seldom was a day without in George's St."
