Scope and Content

From Thomas Swift, lists the goods, muslin and rovings, sent to Stockport in one of the four bags; says the cotton which came from Manchester, he thinks from James Wardle, included some damaged goods. In a footnote says that a small parcel for Rev. Bonass[?] of Stockport. A note has been added in pencil at a later date: 'Rev W Bowness curate of [illegible] 1788 [illegible].'
