[COYNE] THE TAT;BOT PAPERS 177 



arrived in Upper Canada with Govr. Simcoe in 1792 that I should live 

 to see the present times, I believe that our friend Allan and myself 

 are the only two, left to witness the works of the D 1 



I have been in great affliction at the death of my brother Lord 

 Talbot, but when the age of 83 years is considered it softens the grief 

 of such an event, Mrs. Aireys father is now Lord Talbot, and he is 82 

 so that he cannot be expected to live much longer, and I should say too 

 old to reside at Malahide Castle, but I presume his son will. I have 

 got into two rooms of my new house, the walls are dry but the chimnies 

 smoke most aggrivatingly, but I keep doors and windows open. 



I am entirely of opinion that you are perfectly prudent and correct 

 in keeping yourself quiet and free from the existing state of doings, as 

 neither credit or profit can be the result. 



I enjoy good health, but feel the cold more than I did in my younger 

 days. I should be delighted if you could muster nerve and drive to 

 Port Talbot when the sleighing is good, as I am actually lonesome. By 

 a letter received by the Aireys I understand that Mrs. Airey's youngest 

 brother was about to be married to a Miss LeFroy a daughter of Baron 

 LeFroy, is she a sister of your LeFroys. with my most affectionate 

 regards to Mrs, Eobinson and every individual of your family I remain 



always sincerely yrs
