| Transcript | Dublin 8th Novr [November?] 1858 My Dear Alexander I was very sorry to hear from Lady Caledon that you had had a return of your [lumbago?] & was laid up with it [indivttand?], until I got your letter on Saturday [last?] I was not [aware?] of your having come back to London, I [sincerely?] trust not the change of climate & the comforts of home will soon have the effect of relieving you W. J. Alexander [Esq?] from from (sic) suffering and away since, I did not know your Northern address nor did I care to trouble you with Mr [Moty's?] [during?] & threatening letter My part of his duplicate reached [me?] & I copy the answer I wrote to it, the shorter I could make it I thought the better - I am glad to find your reply is in the [same?] [tone?] and I quite agree with what you [answer?] to him, that in future it is [going?] through his solicitors you can communicate with [him?] after a [Person?] [Resorts?] In [unmanly?] threat that he will resort to the publication of matters "which will be anything but pleasing" to the Widow of his "bosom friend" no further direct communication can well be held with him - at first I was [Killom?] to allude to this in any letter but afterwards considered that any [lecture?] I might read him would be but thrown away - Your Sept on [Conhs?] [Mo?] for N [Jrns?] [dividends?] œ204.9.11 came safe to hand and I lodged it today with [pay?] broken for [riverland?] in [Consols?] - Lady Caledon has a delightfully calm night [for?] her passage across the Channel I hope to see her in the [Morning?] ready for her journey to the North. The railway being now continuous [to?] Caledon leaves this at one o'clock she will be at home for dinner - We must take care that in the New Reform Bill no proposition shall be introduced which will have the effect of [J Wisuop---?] [N?] Caledon interest in [Tyrone?] - When I know more about what is [intended?] I will write fully to you to get your opinion and to give you such information as I may be able to collect that you may [bring?] your knowledge of the people in power and influence to the support of "the Caledon [Interest?]"- I am very thankful today that I know very much better than I could have hoped to be & Eliza desires me to acknowledge your kinship & [say?] [she?] [is?] quite well - very faithfully Yours J. S. Langly |
