Letters of a mid-19th Century Donegal MerchantBallyshannon, Co. Donegal: A collection of 40 documents written by William Allingham of Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal, to his son John Allingham of Capel St., Dublin, 26 June 1829 to 25 Jan 1847. The last letter, later than the rest and dated 29 March 1865, is personal and nostalgic.William Allingham of Ballyshannon, merchant and bank official, was father of the poet William Allingham and the antiquary Hugh Allingham. The correspondence deals with the firm's overseas trade and finances, problems with debtors and creditors, damage to ships, and losses due to poor harvests. There are occasional references to local events: "Poor James Britton of White Hill met with an awful and sudden death yesterday. He was overseeing an excavation of earth for an embankment, and the earth gave way and overwhelmed the poor fellow! How truly uncertain is the life of man!"The father frequently gives his son advice on whether to give credit or press for payment: "I enclose you Tottenham's account, and a receipt for the money. Call on the old lady yourself and work it out of her as well as you can. You may tell her it was very hard for Mr Blair to pay me, as I never yet spoke to the man in my life, besides it was Miss Tottenham herself when she was living at Bundoran and got all the wine ad she knows right well that I have not been paid for it. If you find she will not pay you at the time promised, get an attorney to write to her, as there is no use in letting it run on any longer." As a m/ss collection, w.a.f. An unusual and fascinating insight into the relationship between a father and son involved in trade at this significant period, before and during the Great Famine. (1)
