Thomas Hatfield to M Nicholson, 24 February 1798
Nephew writing to uncle, apparently from school (?). He hopes his uncle is well. Mr and Mrs Shepherd are well. He is looking forward to the easter holidays where he will probably stay with his uncle. He hopes for a letter from his father soon, and hopes that he will come and pick him up from Liverpool at Easter.
