| Transcript | To William G. Smith, Carrickmacross, Ireland From: 11 Waterloo Road L.pool [Liverpool?] March 31, 1847 Dear William, I am now compelled to shut up against any from your quarter coming forward for Quebec for the ship "John Bolton" she is at present overbooked by a large number - Therefore please caution your people not to come forward till [until?] toward the 12th April, when another Large ship will be ready to take them on same terms, although tis much harder on me. Indeed such is the pressure unless I can be furnished with names of those who can be relied on as certain to come+ +Early there will be no certainty of securing accommoda -tion [accommodation?] during the month of April. I risked keeping open Berths for 70 adults and finding no tidings from your quarter this morning without any difficulty or loss I have got the number squared up - Please don't delay your communication on this subject if practicable Yours most truly Thos [Thomas?] Elliott P.S. Please excuse Hasty Letterwriting these times don't afford time for serious Epistles Mr W. G. Smith Carrickmacross |
