Letter from John James at Wrexham to "Mr and Mrs James, Miss Ireland and Miss Mary A and Cath James" [at ? Parkgate]

Scope and Content

Can not join them until the end of the week due to pressure of work; must shortly attend a "Colliery Meeting" at Wem, to which he feels bound to go "as we are so near disposing of our Colliery"; compliments to Miss Ireland; led the singing at yesterday's chapel services; very affectionate messages to Mary Anne ("the little dear") and "sweet little Kitty". Good wishes
