Scope and content
Wiliam exhorted to come home not later than Thursday next week as the Hudsons are expected on Friday: viz. W.B. Hudson and daughters Isabella and Hannah en route to Leeds. Birth of great-grandchild of William Gray, namely Charles, son of 'Mrs. W. Gray the 2nd'. (She was in fact the first wife of W. Gray the 2nd, Mr. Gray's grandson). (The Hudsons, though related to them all through Alice, wife of William Hey, F.R.S., were especially linked with the William Hey family of Leeds because William Hey ('the second'), brother of the writer of this letter, married his first cousin Isabella Hudson, whose mother was Alice Hey's sister).
