To GDC at Garroulds. No postmark - before Easter
Laxfield
Friday
My dear George,
I was very pleased to hear good news from you yesterday. Have sent
you (?) brushes also your old gloves to clean boots in. I went to
Streets last evening to try and get you some cheats(?) but Bunting
nor Scace had any that would do. You had better get one or two
which will last if you have your linen washed very well but 15s a
quarter will never do but will hear what your Aunt say on Saturday
then can write and let us know. I think you will like your jacket &
vest have sent the pieces also like the other. I will send your white
shirts after Easter if you can make out till then. Suppose you and
William will have the day together on Good Friday. I should often
like to peep in & see you but am glad you are happy and comfort
able, rather different to Laxfield. Father have not sold the sheep yet
but Noaks is coming to look at them on Monday. We had another
die last Sunday. I must tell you I have 13 chickens thought you
would like to know. Chandler borrowed me a gander for six weeks
so now I think we shall do. You must let me know when you want
some money. How about collars, I should wear paper ones they are
the cheapest. Now I must say adieu, all join with me in kind love to
you &
Believe me
Your affecte Mama
M. Chandler
Little ones send you a kiss
