Letter from Charles Swanston, Hobart Town, to George Mercer, Dryden, Edinburgh, 27 January 1843 Digital

Lack of attention to a dairy on Gorthy property. Suggests Mercer send out an engine to establish a good mill. Depreciation in the price of stock. Accounts of last wool sales not promising. Scott Bell andamp; Co. Port Phillip Accounts. Failure of Port Phillip Bank. Banking concerns of P.P.A. answer well.
