Anyone want to help decipher a letter from 1790? Pic attached. Hilariously starts with 'for god sake'

[OldTrot]

And not 'for god sake' in a religious sense!

I have so far ....

@Houseplantmad oh god a total amateur! Just love all this stuff

Victorian - Georgian is my era I suppose: I also collect antique miniatures for a Victorian dolls house but I do not recommend that as a cheap hobby! That costs me £££!

The letters I can do cheaply. Oh I also like Georgian miniature portraits too. I just file them nicely but it's fascinating to imagine who these people are

And right now - it's fun to think of Mr Wood sitting down to scribble furiously a letter that starts 'for gods sake!'

What a fun letter! I have a scanned copy of my 14th great grandfathers will from 1597. Maybe I'll post that at some point 😂

Tricky, tricky! My best guess so far:

Dear Sir,

[Sch… Family]

For God’s sake – push the examination of Mr [Kingdom] in the way you want to be satisfied in, so as to prevent any longer delay and let me know you have done it. I shall be unwilling to suppose that the matter will be delayed any longer.

Martyn [G. Beardon]

As I shall soon be in London, I wish you would determine about the money, as I shall be again [pressed] about that matter. The time you mentioned last year is now come. If I could satisfy your uncle and thy wishes, I should be glad of it. I am […]

This is exactly what I came up with too. Looks to me like a letter written to a clerk with instructions for/about two other parties.

@OldTrot I've tried to PM you but MN seems to have decided you dont exist. I've got a doozy of a list for deciphering! Please DM and I will send 😊
