The letter begins: 'Mr. Ormerod has received Mr Cornish's enquiry whether Mr O. has "any Io [i.e. folio] Paper Hist: of Cheshire for sale.' He replies that he 'has now only two Io Paper copies of Hist: Cheshire One is extensively illustrated and bound in ten Volumes in Morocco - This, of course, cannot be parted with.' Ormerod would part with the other set 'for £100, (one Hundred pounds) Cash - not less'. It is 'uncut, new, boarded in three Vols, with morocco backs by Clarke, and has a Set of additional India Proofs and etchings'. He gives a further detail, before stating the 'facts' by which he 'is guided' in arriving at the price he is asking: the prices paid a 'few weeks ago' by 'Mr. Newman (of Holborn)', for copies 'bought, at a Sale, & resold at profit', as well as for a copy bought by Newman from Ormerod himself.
