Transcript

Harley Street April 24th 1792

Sir.

I should have written to you sooner on the subject of the Papers you sent me relative to Mr Lloyds {1} Estate, but the Gentleman with whom I wished to converse, as I told you, has been ill & unable to attend to business.

I am ready to compleat the business whenever it suits Mr Lloyd. of† course the Deeds in his Possession will be deliverd to me, & a Warranty for the Titles, & a Bar to Mrs Lloyds Dower as you propose. I take it for granted that you will prepare the Draught of the Deed accordingly, & the sooner you do it the better. I shall go into Suffolk with my family on Tuesday next, & will take my chance of seeing you.

I am Sir

Your very obedt
& humble Sert
Chas Arcedeckne

—————

Postmarked 24 Apr. 1792. Docketed ’24 Apr 1792 | Mr Arcedeene’, perhaps a phonetic spelling. Dawson Turner has written at the top in pencil, ‘M.P for Wallingford & Westbury’. In the original some words are abbreviated by superior letters. In the transcript the missing letters have been supplied in square brackets. Some of the words in the draft reply are indistinct.

{1} Possibly Richard Bennett Lloyd of the Foot Guards, the former husband of Arcedeckne’s sister-in-law Johanna. Lloyd died in 1787. Johanna’s eldest sister Amelia also married, secondly, a man named Lloyd, but he was a clergyman. See Burke’s History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland (1835), ii. 599.

{2} Some of the words in this draft are indistinct.

{3} The exact reading of this line is uncertain.
