My Lord
I apply’d a few days ago to Lord SIDMOUTH, stating my
wish to emigrate to the Cape of Good Hope, and was
this morning honour’d with an answer directing me to
apply to Your Lordship.
I was formerly a Bookseller at the West end of the
Town and can refer to several gentlemen of the highest
respectability in that Business. I am nearly 40 years
of age and have a Wife and 5 Children, (viz) 4 Boys
and a Girl, the eldest 16 years, the youngest three,
all in good health and ready to proceed to the Colony
with Your Lordship's approbation. I am greatly
reduced in my circumstances and find it impossible to
support my family, without occasional assistance from
my friends which it is my anxious wish to avoid.
Should Your Lordship be pleased to direct my departure
agreeable to the regulations of His Majesty's
Government you will bestow a lasting obligation on a
whole family. With sentiments of the greatest respect
I have the honour to subscribe myself
Your Lordships most obedient and devoted humble
servant
John Young MUDIE
