| Transcript | To Mr W.G. Smith Carrickmacross Ireland From: Liverpool 22. April 1844 Dear William, The last party of your people got off yesterday all in excellent humour & I must say most grateful they all appeared for the trifling friendship or attention I tried to shew [show?] them. They one and all desired I should write to let you know how they prayed for your success as they termed it- The ready cash they all got daily done much for them, & tended to make them very cheerful. I seen Mr Ganatt last night he is improving, but not able to get out yet. I told him how strongly you felt for him, & for which he is very thankful We are all sorry to hear of Bess being so sadly tortured could she not have got the troublesome member filled it is very generally done here & invariably with good effect I am desired to enquire how Tommy Johnston gets on perhaps you will think on & make Wm [William?] or Billey George ansr. [answer?] this query - Please tell Wm [William?] to write by Wednesdays post to say what may be the probable number for Quebec - The passage to Newyork [New York?] still runs so high parties going that way would do well to wait till [until?] about the middle of May - but those for Quebec must get away soon else they must wait for the second trip of the ships say about July Most truly yours Thos [Thomas?] Elliott |
