Dear Bror
I find you have now got a share in
the Business and of course suppose you intend to
commence House-keeping all at once, I shall be very
happy to spend a few days with you now and then.
I sometimes go a shooting
with the old Gun, and I really think with some
better success than you used to do, I have shot
several {?field-fare} which you know are not very
easily come at, we have a many about us also
a many thrushes.
I will send the
Rollin the first opportunity; I should not readily
be permitted to send them by themselves per Coach.
I hear very good accounts of you, how
you have left off Great Coats &c being determined as
I suppose together with your Clerkship to lay aside
all your old foibles.

sincerely
Thos Bateman
