Letter from Colonel Anthony Ormsby, eldest son to Thomas Ormsby of Ballinamore, Co. Mayo, from 12 Rutland Street. "Mr. Fowler the attorney has opened the sale of Maidenhead by bidding £150 more than I bid in the name of Mr. Charles Jones of Wicklow but it is all a sham to gain time til November so that Davy Ruttledge will get the last year's rent due 1st November next. Fowler is doing all that he can to get into Davy's business as Anthony Blake is giving it up. He don't wish to have anything to do with it, as he can get neither credit not profit from it, Davy not having a shilling. The business must now be over till Nov. next as nothing more can be done in the long vacation. Tom ought now to consider and make up his mind whether he will take a new lease for 31 years and rise his rent, s on that will entirely depend my bidding any higher for it. If I got it at what I bid I would be a loser of £92 per annum during Tom's lease and I do not wish to lessen my income more than that, so that unless Tom wishes to rise the rent on getting a new lease for 31 years, I will not bid any more for it. The sale of Cornfield is also opened, so that it must also stand over til Nov. Purchasing under a decree of Court is a most tiresome and uncertain thing as there is no knowing when it will be concluded. Will you get Peter Phibbs to write and let me know particularly how you and my mother are. I hope the boxes for the wheels fitted. Anne and Tom join me in love and duty to you, my mother and believe me dear Father your dutiful and loving son Anthony Ormsby".
