Scope and content
Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - [after making a mistake over the date which is corrected messily] 'As Uncle Tom [Macauley] said to Mr [Thomas Flower] Ellis' he can send a 'blotted sheet' since Robert is a friend. Hopes Robert 'got safe, and found fires'. He and George went out to Saughhouses, where Goerge shot two rabbits; they got six in all, including those killed by Howie. George says '417 French and 391 English were killed' [in a game of toy soldiers?].
