Sandbach Tinne : From James McInroy, Leven, to Samuel Sandbach, Liverpool, 1814-06-25

McInroy, James

Sandbach Tinne

<p style='text-align: justify;'><p>Was so anxious to see his family he remained in Glasgow only a few hours. He and Mr Parker had agreed to go on Tuesday to commence operations on the Diana, which is due to go in the first convoy. However, JM has heard from Mr Murray of the arrival of a Suriname mail, so will go on Monday. Discusses the wisdom of shipping orders on the Diana, given 'the great changes on this side'. The Diana is being unloaded and the cotton will be tried at public sale. The Clyde sustained an accident, but the hull is not much injured. By mutual consent the masters are to change ships. The Diana sprang a leak, which turned out to be a rat hole. Has had a letter from Mr Koppiers and letters from Mr Rauch and others, who demand upwards of £20,000 from him under threat of putting Providence estate under sequestration. Further discussion of financial matters and cargos.</p></p>
